Apollo Opens New Point of Presence in Equinix London Data Centre

Apollo Supports Customer Demand by Increasing Resilience and Reducing Latency Between London and the USA

LONDON, December 17 - Apollo, a transatlantic submarine cable system, and Equinix, Inc.
(Nasdaq: EQIX), a provider of global data centre services, today announced
that Apollo has opened a new Point of Presence (PoP) in Equinix's LD4 London
Slough International Business Exchange(TM) (IBX(R)) data centre. This new PoP
in LD4 provides Apollo's customers with resilient, intercontinental access
between the UK and major cities in the USA. By locating outside central
London, Apollo is offering its customers an alternative, low latency route,
by-passing major congestion points within central London.

Apollo's submarine cable system connects the world's leading
telecommunication and internet companies to the USA, with Apollo North
connecting from the UK and Apollo South connecting from France. Apollo chose
to extend its cable system into LD4 to meet increasing customer demand for
reliable, linear wavelengths between London and the USA. By hosting a PoP in
LD4, Apollo will enable its customers to bypass central London, linking
directly to its UK landing station in Cornwall. This will improve the
resilience and speed of connection, providing an alternative access point
between London and the USA in substantially less than 70 milliseconds.

"We are delighted to be associated with Equinix, the world's leading data
centre services provider," said Richard Elliott, managing director of Apollo.
"Directly connecting to LD4 will offer our customers diversity from other
London networks and meet the growing requirements of our customer base. By
investing in this new PoP, we have enhanced our network in a way that cuts
latency, increases diversity and ensures optimum resilience."

"As one of the main transatlantic cable providers to the USA, we are
excited to be working with Apollo to provide its customers with a first class
network architecture," added Russell Poole, Equinix's General Manager in the
UK. "With a direct access cable into our LD4 data centre, Apollo can offer a
reliable alternative to connecting through central London and provide its
customers with the consistent low latency that they need."
