They didn't seem to want to use a router. Purpose-built 100 Gbps routers are a bit expensive, but you can also turn a computer into one.

Many switches are L3 capable, making them in effect a router. Considering their internet lines appear to be hooked up to their 100 Gbps switch, I'd guess this is one of the L3 ones.
