Rondônia · network infrastructure
The Rondônia snapshot records four facilities, three in Porto Velho and one in Cacoal, holding four network presences in total. Porto Velho also has the state's internet exchange, IX.br (PTT.br) Porto Velho, where 14 networks peer, more participants than the four facilities record between them.
Internet exchanges in Rondônia
Exchanges are attributed to the state through the city they sit in, because PeeringDB records a state for facilities but not for exchanges.
| Exchange | City | Participants |
|---|---|---|
| IX.br (PTT.br) Porto Velho | Porto Velho | 14 |
Colocation facilities
Buildings where networks put equipment. The network count is how many PeeringDB members list a presence there.

| PIX-Setic | Porto Velho | 1 |
| PIX-NBS Telecom | Porto Velho | 1 |

What a Rondônia IP address tells you
Porto Velho holds every facility in Rondônia that lists a network. PIX-Ollá Telecom has two, PIX-Setic one and PIX-NBS Telecom one, while SpeedTravel Telecom in Cacoal records none. Traffic meets locally at IX.br (PTT.br) Porto Velho, which counts 14 participants, so more networks peer in the city than keep a recorded presence in one of the four sites. Anything outside that group of 14 leaves the state through an upstream provider and is handed over elsewhere in Brazil.
An IP address that geolocates to Rondônia carries the label because the operator registered the block to an address in the state. Claro (AS22085), TIM (AS26615) and Vivo (AS26599, AS27699) aggregate mobile subscribers behind regional gateways, so a phone in Porto Velho or Cacoal can present an address that databases read as somewhere else in Brazil. The snapshot counts four facility presences against 14 networks at the exchange, so the record inside the state is thinner than the peering it supports.
Check the origin ASN on the prefix and the netname the operator published for it rather than a city returned by a lookup. In a state with one exchange and two recorded cities, addresses used in Porto Velho and Cacoal often come out of the same blocks, and a city-level lookup will not separate them. The registry record is the part the network operator states directly.

Questions
How many data centres are in Rondônia?
Four facilities appear in the snapshot: PIX-Ollá Telecom, PIX-Setic and PIX-NBS Telecom in Porto Velho, plus SpeedTravel Telecom in Cacoal. Between them they hold four network presences, and the Cacoal site records none of its own.
Is there an internet exchange in Rondônia?
Yes. IX.br (PTT.br) Porto Velho operates in the city with 14 participants. Traffic between those networks can stay in Rondônia instead of routing to another region to be handed over, which is more networks than the state's facilities hold.
Can I get an IP address in Rondônia?
Placement follows the operator's address registration rather than a customer's choice of state. A block reads as Rondônia when the network holding it registered it here. Mobile addresses from Claro, TIM and Vivo are assigned by the carrier, and a device in the state can appear elsewhere.
