Level 3 Lights Low Latency Route Between London and Frankfurt
Level 3 Communications has created a new low-latency route between London and Frankfurt, aimed at financial market customers involved in the high-frequency trading business where milliseconds and microseconds can have significant impact on trading profits.
“We have an extensive fiber network in Europe, and there are some key financial markets in London and Frankfurt,” said Tim King, European director of transport products for Level 3. “It was a natural progression to roll out [the low-latency service] into Europe.”
Level 3 has offered a low-latency New-York-to-Chicago route for more than a year and has had low-latency trans-Atlantic routes for about a year. Customers can use a combination of low-latency links to obtain connectivity between London and New York, for example, or between Frankfurt and Chicago, King said.
