Select an access point
Access points indicate the geographical locations where Express Connect circuits are connected to Alibaba Cloud. Two access devices are deployed at each access point. Each region contains one or more access points. You can connect your data center to a virtual private cloud (VPC) through an access point that meets your requirements. For more information about access points, see Locations of access points.
When you choose an access point, take note of factors such as the region, connectivity provider, and port.
Factor | Description |
Region | We recommend that you select the access point nearest to your data center. The connectivity providers and bandwidth limits vary based on the access point. |
Connectivity provider | We recommend that you choose a connectivity provider based on your business requirements. You can lease an Express Connect circuit from China Unicom, China Telecom, China Mobile, or other connectivity providers. Note
|
Port | You can use a copper Ethernet port or an optical port.

Query of access point locations
Before you query access point locations on the Physical Connection page:
You must apply for the quota whose ID and name are ec_can_get_pconn_address and q_db41hu in the Quota Center. Wait 10 to 15 minutes after you submit the application because the system needs to refresh the cache. For more information about how to request a quota increase, see Request a quota increase.
If you cannot view the quota information, contact your account manager.
You can query the access points of only dedicated Express Connect circuits.
You can log on to the Express Connect console and apply for an LOA. After the application is approved, you can use one of the following methods to query the access point locations.
