This document describes the billing and pricing of connection, dedicated tunnel and direct connect gateway.
Tencent Cloud Direct Connect is billed on the basis of connection, dedicated tunnel, and direct connect gateway.
Note:
- The bandwidth units are 1000-based, which means 1 Tbps is equal to 1,000 Gbps and 1 Gbps is equal to 1,000 Mbps.
- The traffic units are 1024-based, which means 1 TB is equal to 1,024 GB and 1 GB is equal to 1,024 MB.

A connection is the connection between your local IDC and the Tencent Cloud Direct Connect access point. You need to pay both Tencent Cloud billable items and non-Tencent Cloud billable items.

Monthly dedicated tunnel fee = number of valid days in the month / number of calendar days in the month * 95th percentile of the monthly peak bandwidth * tiered unit price.
In Chinese mainland, the pay-as-you-go billing mode applies at the price as shown below.
Specification (Mbps) | Monthly Price (USD/Mbps) |
---|---|
[0, 10) | 85 |
[10, 20) | 63 |

Note:
- For more information on tiered pricing, contact your Tencent Cloud rep.
- Communication over the Beijing-Tianjin and Guangzhou-Shenzhen dedicated tunnels is free of charge before December 31, 2021.
A user uses a Guangzhou-Beijing dedicated tunnel for 14 valid days in January. The number of sample points per day is 288, which is the result of Total duration/Statistical period (24 × 60/5). Therefore, the total number of sample points for the 14 valid days is 4,032 (14 × 288). The bandwidth values of the 4,032 sample points are sorted in ascending order, and the top 5% sample points are removed. The average bandwidth value of the 3,830 sample points (4,032 × 0.95 = 3,830.4) is taken as the billable bandwidth of the month and recorded as Max95. Assume that the value of Max95 is 15 Mbps, for which the corresponding tiered unit price is 63 USD/Mbps. The total fee is calculated as follows: 14/31 × 15 × 63 = 426.77 USD. The fee will be deducted between 8 and 10 AM on February 1.
