IPTP Networks is a global telecommunications enterprise established in Cyprus in 1996 initially as a System Integrator. Over time, it has transformed into an international group and currently functions as an Internet Service Provider (ISP) with a Tier-1-class network, maintaining more than 225 points of presence (PoPs) across the world.

Operations

The company operates its own advanced, multifunctional, and resilient broadband MPLS infrastructure, comprising around 229 PoPs and 77 hosting and colocation sites internationally. IPTP Networks utilizes a combination of submarine and terrestrial optical fiber routes spanning Trans-Atlantic, Trans-Pacific, Trans-Eurasian, Indian Ocean, and Mediterranean corridors to link customers with key Internet exchange points (IXs) and prominent financial hubs worldwide.

Peering

Identified by AS41095, IPTP Networks participates in leading IXs such as AMS-IX, DE-CIX, LINX, MSK-IX, and Digital Realty. The company adopts a selective peering strategy and has engaged with over 20 Euro-IX member IXPs. In 2020, IPTP extended its peering connections to include IX.BR (Brazil), Australia IX, New Zealand IX, ZA-INX (South Africa), and VNIX (Vietnam). By 2021, IPTP (ASN 51601) established connectivity to Speed Internet Exchange in Amsterdam and became part of the BBIX Transit Partner Program (TPP).

In 2013, IPTP Networks acquired Wherr and subsequently introduced the Wherr GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) tracking service in Hong Kong in 2016.
