AboveNet has launched low latency end-to-end transatlantic connections between London and New York, reaching key financial locations in: London: Slough, the City and Docklands New York Metro: Manhattan and New Jersey, including: Newark, Weehawken, Secaucus, Carteret, and Clifton, the company says.
AboveNet’s new low latency transatlantic service is targeted specifically at the financial sector, supporting critical applications such as foreign exchange trading and market data feeds.
“With venues such as Chi-X now operating out of Equinix in Slough and NASDAQ operating out of Carteret, New Jersey, we’re seeing a growing requirement for low latency transatlantic connectivity, says Alan Berryman, AboveNet director.
The premium service uses the shortest transatlantic cable systems with the most direct terrestrial backhaul link into New York and Slough. In addition, AboveNet also provides latency guarantees for as low as sub-one millisecond round-trip for access to hundreds of buildings in the New York and London metro markets.
