The last mile,already sorted.
Get your building physically connected to the nearest DCConnect PoP or your chosen carrier hotel — without chasing a dozen local last-mile providers yourself. One order, one SLA, one point of contact for the physical circuit that makes everything else possible.
The hardest meter is the first one.
Building your network across long-haul fiber, DCI, or cloud on-ramps is the easy part on paper. The actual bottleneck is almost always the physical handoff — getting a real, working circuit from your building’s MDF/riser to the nearest meet-me-room, IXP, or carrier hotel.
DCConnect’s Local Access Circuit removes that friction. We manage the local loop end-to-end — survey, build, cross-connect, and SLA — across our partner ecosystem of 40+ local access providers, so you deal with one contract and one NOC instead of a dozen regional vendors.
- One order, any building. We orchestrate the local loop even where DCConnect isn't physically on-net.
- Fiber or copper handoff. Ethernet over fiber, leased copper, or fixed wireless where fiber isn't viable.
- Single SLA, single NOC. We hold the last-mile partner accountable so you don't have to.
- Diverse path options. Route-diverse circuits available for buildings needing physical redundancy.
What you get
Four things that come standard.
Every Local Access Circuit order includes these four capabilities — no add-ons, no hidden upgrade tiers.
On-Net & Off-Net Reach
Already in 1,200+ buildings across APAC. Where we’re not on-net, we orchestrate the build through our 40+ partner ecosystem under one DCConnect contract.
Fiber, Copper, or Wireless
Ethernet over fiber as standard. Leased copper for legacy buildings, or licensed fixed wireless as a fast-deploy alternative when fiber build time is too long.
Survey-to-SLA in One Order
One quote covers the site survey, the build, the cross-connect, and the ongoing SLA — instead of separate contracts with a landlord, a builder, and a carrier.
Path-Diverse Redundancy
Need physical resilience, not just logical? We can design and provision a second, geographically diverse access circuit into the same building.
How it works
From building address to live circuit.
DCConnect handles the survey, the partner coordination, and the SLA. You handle the traffic.
Tell us the building
Give us the address and the service you’re connecting to — a DCI circuit, IP Transit, Cloud Connect, or an IXP port. We check on-net status instantly and run a desktop survey for off-net sites within 24 hours.
We design & quote the path
We map the shortest viable path from your riser to the nearest meet-me room or PoP, select the right medium (fiber, copper, or wireless), and return a firm quote with install lead time.
Build, test, and go live
Our project team coordinates landlord access, cabling, and testing end-to-end. You get a single activation date and a working circuit handed off ready to carry traffic — monitored by our 24×7 NOC.
One contract. Forty local partners. Any building.
DCConnect maintains direct on-net presence in over 1,200 carrier-neutral buildings, data centers, and business parks across APAC. For sites outside that footprint, we manage the relationship with local access partners on your behalf — so the contract, the invoice, and the SLA stay with DCConnect.
That means no chasing multiple vendors for status updates, and no gaps in accountability when something needs fixing in the field.
Technical specifications
The engineering details, on the table.
Exact medium options, delivery parameters, and SLA terms — no vague marketing claims.
Interface
Port Speed
Ethernet handoff from 10 Mbps up to 10GbE. Fractional bandwidth available for cost-sensitive sites. LAG/LACP supported for link aggregation on dual circuits.
Medium
Access Type
Single-mode fiber as the default delivery medium. Leased copper (E1/T1, xDSL) for legacy buildings. Licensed microwave/fixed wireless for fast-deploy or fiber-constrained sites.
Coverage
Building Footprint
Direct presence in major carrier-neutral data centers, business parks, and CBD towers across APAC. Off-net sites quoted via the partner ecosystem within 24–48 hours.
Resilience
Path Diversity
Where building infrastructure allows, a second physically diverse circuit can be provisioned via a different duct/riser entry point and last-mile partner for true physical redundancy.
SLA
99.9% Availability
Standard circuit availability SLA of 99.9%, with mean-time-to-repair targets backed by service credits. Enhanced SLA tiers available for mission-critical sites.
Delivery
5-Day Average Install
On-net buildings typically activate within 5 business days of order. Off-net new-build circuits depend on local permitting and partner availability — quoted up front, no surprises.
Who uses this
Where Local Access Circuit wins.
Whenever a service needs a physical handoff into a building — this is the piece that makes it real.
Enterprises & Branch Office
Connecting HQ or branch sites to your DCI, IPLC, or Cloud Connect service starts with a physical circuit into the building. We handle that last mile so your IT team doesn’t have to manage a separate local vendor.
Carriers & ISPs
Extending your network into a building you don’t own infrastructure in? We provide the local access leg so you can sell connectivity into buildings outside your own footprint, billed and managed under one wholesale agreement.
Data Center & Colo Operators
Need a cross-connect from your facility to a meet-me room or another data center across town? We provision and manage that inter-building circuit, giving your tenants more interconnection options without you running the fiber yourself.
Financial & Trading Firms
Low-latency, high-reliability connectivity to exchanges and liquidity venues depends on a clean, well-documented physical path. We design and provision diverse-path circuits engineered for predictable latency.
Frequently asked
Questions we get a lot.
Still have questions? Reach out our team
How do I check if my building is on-net?
Send us the building address — most checks are instant for our 1,200+ on-net locations. For off-net sites, our team runs a desktop survey, typically returning a feasibility result and indicative quote within 24–48 hours.
What if there’s no fiber available at my site?
We evaluate alternatives: licensed fixed wireless for fast deployment, leased copper for lower-bandwidth needs, or a new fiber build for greenfield or long-term sites. We’ll recommend the most practical and cost-effective option.
Can I order Local Access Circuit on its own?
Yes — it can be ordered standalone for connecting a building into the DCConnect network, or bundled with DCI, IP Transit, Cloud Connect, IPLC, or any other service that needs a physical handoff point.
What does “path-diverse” actually guarantee?
A path-diverse circuit uses a different physical entry point, duct, and (where possible) last-mile partner from your primary circuit, so a single fiber cut or building entry failure doesn’t take down both. We document the diversity assessment per building.
Who handles landlord and building access approvals?
We do. Our project delivery team manages landlord notifications, building access permits, and any required civil works coordination as part of the install — you won’t need to chase building management directly.
What’s the minimum contract term?
Standard terms are 12, 24, or 36 months. Shorter terms are available for off-net new-builds where construction costs need to be amortized differently — talk to sales about your specific site.
Ready to connect your building to the network?
Send us the address. We’ll confirm on-net status, recommend the best medium, and put together a proposal — usually within 24 hours.
