Avelacom Launches New Stockholm PoP to Optimise Tokyo-London Connectivity

Subscribe to our newsletter

Avelacom, the ultra-low latency connectivity and infrastructure provider, has established a new Point of Presence (PoP) in AWS Stockholm, introducing an alternative route specifically designed to enhance connectivity between cloud trading environments in Tokyo and London. By using Stockholm as a strategic transit point, the new setup provides a more efficient path for institutional traders and prediction market platforms operating across these regions.

The Tokyo–Stockholm segment achieves a round-trip delay (RTD) of approximately 118 milliseconds, setting a new performance benchmark for Asia–Europe data transfers by reducing end-to-end latency between Tokyo and London by up to 10 milliseconds compared to standard connectivity routes, according to the company. Such improvements are targeted at digital asset trading firms that require high-speed access and precise alignment with regional market infrastructure.

This launch addresses the specific technical requirements of crypto-native platforms and high-frequency trading firms. By focusing on infrastructure location and path optimisation, Avelacom aims to provide more reliable and faster access to London-based cloud environments, ensuring that latency-sensitive market participants can maintain a competitive edge in global digital asset markets.
