TNS Enhances European Backbone to Support Increased Market Data Volumes

Subscribe to our newsletter

Transaction Network Services (TNS) has upgraded its European backbone, increasing capacity to manage growing market data volumes from numerous exchanges throughout Europe. The network has been reengineered to ensure maximum uptime, resilience, data delivery, and to offer the lowest commercially available latency between significant European financial centres, such as London, Frankfurt, and Bergamo. Both primary and secondary network paths have been enhanced to maintain complete end-to-end diversity of A and B market data feeds.

Over the last five years, TNS has established an ultra-low latency trading network throughout Europe, designed for buy-side and sell-side firms, prop shops and vendors. The network connects to 60 global exchanges and is monitored around the clock by TNS’ global network operations centres.
