Avelacom Launches Low-Latency Connectivity Route Between Bangkok and Tokyo

Subscribe to our newsletter

Avelacom, the ultra-low latency connectivity and infrastructure provider, has launched a direct network route between Bangkok and Tokyo. By optimizing the terrestrial fibre segment, the company has established a more direct path between Thailand and Japan, achieving a round-trip delay (RTD) of less than 65 milliseconds.

The new route specifically supports low-latency connectivity between the Thailand Futures Exchange and CME derivatives markets, with a focus on gold and foreign exchange (FX) market data and trading. It caters to proprietary trading firms, institutional trading desks, and regional banks operating across global equity, FX, commodity, and derivatives markets, where deterministic network performance directly influences execution efficiency.

This infrastructure expansion addresses the growing demand for reliable, high-performance connectivity as Bangkok solidifies its position as a regional financial and trading hub. The route further integrates into Avelacom’s broader global network, which links major traditional and digital asset trading venues across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific region.
