GigaPIX is a non-profit Portuguese Internet exchange point which was established in October 1995 (known as Pix at the time). GigaPIX is managed and operated by FCT|FCCN. The stated purpose of GigaPIX is to increase the quality of internet connections in Portugal by avoiding the usage of international links for traffic that is local, saving money and reducing costs. GigaPIX is a founding member of EuroIX.[1] GigaPIX operates as a neutral Internet Exchange Point, facilitating high-speed traffic switching between connected organizations, which is meant to improve the quality of IP interconnections within Portugal.
Physically, GigaPIX has four Exchange Points in two different cities, three in Lisbon and one in Porto, to improve connectivity among Portuguese local networks.[2]
