Proxy pool

A proxy pool is the collection of exit IP addresses available to a gateway at a given moment. Its size, geographic spread and turnover determine how many distinct addresses you can get in a country or city, how often the same address is reused against a target, and how quickly blocked exits are replaced. Advertised pool sizes usually count addresses seen over a month; the number online right now is smaller.

Reading pool-size claims#

  • "X million IPs" is typically a monthly unique count, not concurrent capacity.
  • What matters for a job is the pool in your target country or city at your time of day.
  • Turnover cuts both ways: fresh addresses have clean histories, but a session can lose its exit.

Pool versus list#

A pool is consumed through a gateway that picks exits for you; a list is a fixed set of static addresses you manage yourself. Residential and mobile products are pools; ISP and datacenter products are lists.

How it works at Proxy Cyber#

Proxy Cyber publishes its pool size per network and dates it: 70M+ residential, 550K+ ISP, 550K+ datacenter and 4.9M+ mobile IPs, as of September 2026. The residential and mobile figures are monthly counts of distinct addresses, read the way this page describes; the ISP and datacenter figures are the inventory that orders are drawn from. Coverage is 199 countries and territories for residential and 100+ for mobile, and the pool that decides a job is the one in your target country: test there first.
