"Exchanges have the potential to accelerate carrier Ethernet service adoption by making it much easier to identify serviceable locations and speeding service delivery to those locations in markets all around the world. Tracking the number of site connections is a good way to measure the relevancy of an exchange and to monitor the intensity of competition within particular markets"
