Coordinates are the real datacentre city rather than the marketing region name, because they feed the distance maths below.
Light in fibre covers about 100 km per millisecond of round trip. These are the great-circle distances to Miami and the latency no network can beat — not a measurement, a limit. What you actually measure is this plus routing.
| From | Distance | Floor |
|---|---|---|
| New York | 1,758 km | 18 ms |
| Los Angeles | 3,758 km | 38 ms |
| São Paulo | 6,566 km | 66 ms |
| London | 7,127 km | 71 ms |
| Frankfurt | 7,764 km | 78 ms |
| Johannesburg | 12,945 km | 129 ms |
| Dubai | 12,600 km | 126 ms |
| Mumbai | 14,242 km | 142 ms |
| Singapore | 16,970 km | 170 ms |
| Tokyo | 12,004 km | 120 ms |
| Sydney | 15,026 km | 150 ms |
Within 75 km of Miami — near enough that distance sets no meaningful floor between them. When several sit in one city, the fastest is the city’s real floor; a slower neighbour is usually the endpoint’s own server time.
These figures are geometry. Your own round trip to fl-us depends on your connection and the route it takes — open the instrument, pick Vultr, and sweep. Every region is timed from your browser against the endpoint listed above, and the result is split into the part physics demands and the part the network added.
