Frequent questions Frequent questions

What is an international fiber crossing?

It’s dedicated dark fiber infrastructure that physically crosses the US–Mexico border, letting a network operator extend service into Mexico without building, licensing, or leasing its own cross-border route. Interconnection Services

Which border points does MDC's fiber crossing network cover?

MDC operates dark fiber crossings at 9 strategic points along the US–Mexico border spanning Texas, Arizona, and California, each with diverse fiber routes. Our Locations

Can I buy a fiber crossing outright, or lease it monthly?

Both. MDC’s fiber crossings are available through a 15- or 20-year IRU or as a monthly lease service (“Crossing as a Service”), allowing customers to choose the model that best fits their capital strategy. Request pricing

Why use MDC's fiber crossing instead of building my own?

Building an independent cross-border fiber route means navigating regulatory approval on both sides of the border. MDC’s existing crossings let operators enter the Mexican market immediately without that process. Contact us

How much capacity does MDC's fiber crossing network carry?

MDC’s international fiber crossing infrastructure currently carries an estimated combined traffic of more than 150 terabits per second, with Tier 1 IP providers and hyperscale network operators among its customers. Interconnection Services
