Overview Introduction
Datacenter proxies offer the fastest speeds and lowest latency, making them ideal for high-volume operations where speed matters more than appearing as a residential user.
Step 1 Datacenter Proxy Advantages
Why choose datacenter proxies:
- Speed: Fastest connection speeds available
- Cost: Most affordable option for high volume
- Reliability: 99.9% uptime guarantee
- Consistency: Dedicated IPs for your exclusive use
Note: Datacenter proxies are best for targets that don't heavily fingerprint IP types, or for internal/private applications.
Step 2 Your Datacenter Dashboard
Manage your datacenter proxies in the dashboard:
- View all active proxies and their status
- See connection details (host, port, credentials)
- Check expiration dates and renew
- Edit labels for organization
Step 3 Connection Format
Connect to your datacenter proxies:
BASH
# Connection details
Host: dc.fusionproxy.net (or specific endpoint shown)
Port: (shown in your dashboard)
Username: your_auth_username
Password: your_auth_password
# Example usage
curl -x http://dc.fusionproxy.net:YOUR_PORT \
-U "auth_user:auth_pass" \
