Pacific Wave's architecture is designed to be accessible from multiple submarine cable landings and multiple nodes on the Western Coast of the United States. Pacific Wave's switches are located in three metropolitan areas in state-of-the-art facilities. The nodes are interconnected with 10 Gigabit lightpaths provisioned by CENIC and NLR. Peering is done over multiple VLANs set up for jumbo frames, standard frames, local and inter-site.
