Summary

Telxius (Telefónica)

Global · AI-generated

transit backbone wholesale

Telxius (TELXIUS TELEFONICA GLOBAL SOLUTIONS) is Telefónica's international

wholesale carrier, running a global IP backbone and one of the world's largest

submarine-cable networks.

What it's used for

  • Wholesale IP transit and capacity sold to carriers, ISPs, and content networks.
  • Operating major subsea cable systems (e.g. MAREA, BRUSA, Tannat) linking the Americas, Europe, and beyond.

Notable

  • This is Telefónica's international / wholesale arm, distinct from its national consumer ISPs and mobile operators (e.g. Movistar). A low announced end-user footprint is normal for a wholesale carrier.
  • An IP here is usually a mid-path transit hop or carrier infrastructure, not an end user.

Interesting

  • Telxius carries a large share of the Telefónica group's Latin America–Europe traffic and sells capacity on marquee transatlantic cables such as MAREA.
