What is the lowest latency between European (Germany) and Asia (Hong Kong)?

alexholl

Was researching about latency between European and Asia, but couldn't find any numbers. Does anyone have this information?

Should be around 149ms via Frankfurt-Warsaw-Minsk-Saratov-Almaty-Hong Kong

Note that almost no "common" carrier will have this route (RETN maybe?)

Should be doable under 200ms though, assuming the carrier in question uses the "correct" side of the world (= doesn't route it through LAX...)

OVH Frankfurt to Singapore gives me 157ms, it's both OVH though so to other providers it will be a lot more. To Softlayer SG gives me 250ms

Either way it's different to every destination. You can't put a hard number on it that's why you prob can't find anything.

Yes, it's only available to MPLS or transport provider now.

You can check with providers with following transit / peering in Hong Kong if you need low latency between HKG and FRA (should be around 160ms)

RETN
HE
GTT
WTT (IPv6)
HKT
