What Is IP Transit? A Buyer's Guide for Brazil

IP transit is a provider carrying your traffic to the rest of the internet and announcing your prefixes to their peers. You need your own AS number and IP space, and a BGP session. It is billed on committed bandwidth, measured at the 95th percentile.

It differs from peering, where two networks exchange only their own traffic. Most Brazilian entrants combine both: IX.br peering for the domestic share, paid transit for everything else.

Brazil connectivity delivered by a neutral multicarrier operator. We map every route available at your address and come back with price, lead time and SLA.

The short answer

IP transit is a paid service in which one network carries your traffic to every other network on the internet. You hand your provider your routes; the provider hands you back the full internet routing table and forwards your packets anywhere they need to go. You are buying reachability to the whole internet, not to a list of destinations.

Transit, peering and DIA are three different products

Transit

Full routing table, your own ASN, your own prefixes, a BGP session you control. Billed on volume — normally the 95th percentile of your traffic, occasionally on a flat committed rate.

Peering

A direct exchange of traffic with another network, either across a public internet exchange or over a private interconnect. It only reaches the networks you peer with, so it is a complement to transit and never a replacement. What it saves is the per-megabit cost on that share of traffic.

Dedicated internet access

A circuit that puts you on the internet without any of the routing machinery: the provider owns the addressing and the routing decisions. Most enterprises want this. Networks that resell connectivity, run their own edge or need multihoming want transit.

How it gets billed

What you need before you can buy it

An ASN and at least one IP block of your own — in Brazil these come from NIC.br, the national registry operating under LACNIC. A router capable of holding and filtering the full table. A place for the circuit to land, normally a carrier-neutral data center. And, if you are a foreign company, an answer to the local-entity question, because most Brazilian carriers will not contract without a CNPJ.

We are a neutral multicarrier operator. Send us the address and we map every route that can actually deliver there, then come back with price, lead time and SLA — normally within two business hours. No CNPJ required to start.

A group network you can verify

JCM Carrier is the institutional arm of GRUPO JCM. The group operates its own carriers, both listed on PeeringDB.

AS14840, BR.Digital — an NSP carrying 5–10 Tbps, present at 23 internet exchanges with 1.5 Tbps of aggregate IX capacity, and at 60 Hudson Street in New York and Equinix MI1 in Miami, the two carrier hotels where Latin America interconnects with the rest of the world.

AS269311, DNET Brasil — 100 Gbps at IX.br Rio de Janeiro, open peering policy, present at Equinix RJ1 and RJ2 and at the Globenet submarine cable landing station in Rio.

We are not tied to any one of them. Each circuit gets the route that actually serves the address, whether that is a group carrier or a partner network.
