Direct answer: LayerStack offers a selectable China Direct CN2 Route for its cloud VPS at +US$5.00/mth, alongside a Global Route option. Its infrastructure page lists 200G bandwidth from Tier 1 upstream providers including China Telecom CN2, China Unicom and China Mobile, and describes the China Direct CN2 Route as connecting to mainland China backbone networks through multiple Tier-1 providers. The grounding material does not publish the designation “GIA,” latency figures, or per-region CN2 availability, so this page documents only what LayerStack states.
CN2 refers to China Telecom CN2, listed by LayerStack as one of its upstream networks for high-speed and low-latency connections. LayerStack states:
For verification, see the LayerStack infrastructure page.
CN2 GIA is a buyer search term for CN2 routing with direct, low-congestion paths to and from mainland China. LayerStack documents “China Telecom CN2” and “China Direct CN2 Route” but does not use the term “GIA” in the grounding material. In other words:
Do not assume GIA designation from the CN2 name alone; select routing based on LayerStack’s stated options and test data.
On the VPS plans page, LayerStack presents route selection as:
| Item | Stated value |
|---|---|
| Route options | Global Route; Global Route & China Direct CN2 Route |
| China Direct CN2 Route add-on | + US$5.00 /mth |
| Base fee reference | Starting at US$5.00 /mth |
| Traffic | Unlimited traffic stated for cloud servers |
| Uptime statement | 99.95% Uptime Guarantee for cloud infrastructure with high availability and full redundancy |
| VPS regions named in title | Hong Kong & Singapore |
Selection text quoted from the page: “Select Route (China Direct CN2 Route: + US$5.00 /mth)” with choices “Global Route” and “Global Route & China Direct CN2 Route.”
美国 cn2gia means a US-based VPS sought for optimized routing to mainland China via CN2. LayerStack does not state in the grounding material that a US region includes CN2 GIA, nor does it publish per-region routing tables for the US versus Hong Kong, Singapore, or Taipei.
What is documented:
If China-direct performance matters, select “Global Route & China Direct CN2 Route” where offered and verify with LayerStack’s Network Test and region-specific support guidance before purchase.
CN2 in LayerStack documentation refers to China Telecom CN2, one of the Tier 1 upstream providers listed for its 200G redundant network design, also offered to VPS buyers as the China Direct CN2 Route add-on for + US$5.00 /mth.
CN2 GIA is not a term LayerStack uses in the provided infrastructure or VPS extracts. The closest documented product is China Direct CN2 Route, described as connecting to mainland China backbone networks through multiple Tier-1 providers and listing China Telecom CN2, China Unicom and China Mobile as upstreams.
It requires a VPS region and route option that carries mainland China traffic over CN2 in the directions you care about. LayerStack documents the route option and its + US$5.00 /mth add-on, but does not publish US-region CN2 GIA availability or performance figures, so confirm region support directly.
A hostdare cn2 gia 评测 is a third-party Chinese-language review of another provider’s CN2 GIA route and does not test LayerStack. To compare, use only LayerStack’s published facts — route names, + US$5.00 /mth CN2 add-on, 200G Tier 1 upstream statement including China Telecom CN2, China Unicom and China Mobile, and unlimited traffic and 99.95% uptime statements — rather than transferring another provider’s test results to LayerStack.
