# Key Features

## **Global Connectivity**

Zenlayer's 350+ edge POPs are close to data centers in key markets, including emerging economies in China, India, Southeast Asia, South America, and the Middle East. Cloud Networking has a 80+ Tbps backbone capacity, spanning 40+ countries, 80+ cities, and nearly 200 edge backbone PoPs. Zenlayer also connects to leading cloud services like AWS, Google Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, Tencent Cloud, Huawei Cloud, and IBM Cloud.

## **Ultra-Low Latency**

Zenlayer strategically avoids public internet congestion, offering instant and on-demand networking while reducing latency by 30-80% during peak periods.

## **Full-Mesh Networks**

Every node or POP can be interconnected within Zenlayer's high performance, full-mesh Layer 3 networks. These connections make the network highly flexible when routing data to reduce latency and costs while improving data transmission rates.

## **Segment Routing Technology**

Zenlayer’s global backbone network consists of 60+ POPs with segment routing technology. Segment routing provides operator-level availability, enhanced operational efficiency, and guaranteed bandwidth for customers over a flexible interface.

## **Greater Agility**

Customers with office server addresses outside of a Zenlayer POP will not need to deploy a local loop. Zenlayer provides instant last mile access for small bandwidth customers through virtual edge for quick and low-cost access.
