# Delete a Cross Connect

If you no longer need a Cross Connect, you can easily remove it via the **Manage Cross Connects** window, provided it is disconnected from all LANs in the connected data centers.

To delete a Cross Connect, follow these steps:

1\. In the **DCD**, go to **Menu** > **Network Services** > **Cross Connect**.

2\. Select the required **Cross Connect** in the **Manage Cross Connects** window.

3\. Ensure that you first disssociate the following from the Cross Connect:

* any LANs associated with it. You will find the list of LANs in the **Connected LANs** tab.
* any VDCs linked with it. The **Connectable Data Centers** lists the VDCs.

4\. Click **Delete** to proceed with deletion.

5\. Click **OK** in the **Delete Cross Connect** dialog to confirm your action.
