Our financial trading infrastructure is built around our core international network specifically optimised to support multi-venue, multi-asset class high frequency (HF) and algo-trading platforms.
We are directly connected to the world’s major financial trading cities with over 50 points of presence in the City of London and 21 data centres. These points of presence and our single-hop 10GigE core network ensure we deliver the low latency connectivity to trading Exchanges, Brokers, Trading Platforms and Market Data that you require connectivity to.
In order to avoid the legacy network build commonplace in the rest of the industry, we select the fastest and newest available fibre routes into each market using state-of-the-art technology. As a result it delivers the low latency connectivity because of its single-hop architecture which connects directly to key locations and matching engine locations.
Latency figures represent the round trip of a trading route. Some providers show figures which are so low that they seem too good to be true, and they usually are. This is because in many cases the figure quoted only represents a signal travelling one way, which of course is of little use.
Our figures always represent the trading route round trip, and because we have optimised our network specifically for the finance industry, we know they cannot be beaten.
