Located on the Caldera campus in Milan, it is the main Internet Exchange Point (IXP) of Internet networks in Italy and among the first in Europe in terms of traffic.

It is one of the few European IXs equipped with its own data centre where it offers interconnection services to Italian and foreign companies equipped with their own independent network (AS), guaranteeing a high quality, scalable and robust service.

MIX is the first Italian IXP to pass the stringent controls required by the ISO27001:2013 certification, a standard that covers all the safety aspects of IT systems and processes. It also obtained the Open-IX OIX-1 certification (issued to 14 IXPs worldwide), confirming the level of excellence in terms of security and reliability of the services of the main Italian IXP.

MIX is one of the founding members of Open Hub Med, the first neutral hub in Italy for the interconnection of the networks of the Mediterranean basin towards Northern Europe.
