Some things do not seem to change much. Generally speaking, global capacity prices have continued to decline in 2020, continuing the general trend we have seen for a few decades.

Price changes also vary by capacity. 100-Gbps prices have fallen more than 10-Gbps prices, for example, TeleGeography says.
As always, there are regional differences. Routes to and from Latin America and North America have fallen significantly since 2018.
Routes terminating in Sao Paulo have fallen more than 40 percent since 2017, while routes terminating in Jakarta have fallen less than 10 percent, TeleGeography notes.
IP transit prices tend to reflect changes in pricing of transport prices on most routes, as well, with regional differences. Routes between Europe and Africa; Mumbai and Singapore and Los Angeles to Sydney are higher than on trans-Pacific or trans-Atlantic routes.
The Covid-19 policies essentially shutting down education and in-office work, though, have not caused colocation prices to drop, TeleGeography says. About 83 percent of survey respondents say prices have not changed.

Cross connect pricing likewise have been stable in U.S. markets, though rates are rising in Europe.
