Transaction Network Services (TNS) has extended its European presence by launching services in the Equinix ZH4 colocation data centre in Zurich, providing managed hosting and ultra-low latency Layer 1 connectivity to the SIX Swiss Exchange, and supporting access to Swiss equities and derivatives markets for both market data and order entry.

Located on Josefstrasse in central Zurich, Equinix ZH4 offers strategic proximity to the banking district, enhancing connectivity for TNS’ clients, including market data vendors and exchange members. This deployment complements TNS’ existing services across major European hubs such as London and Frankfurt.

As part of its broader European expansion, TNS also provides colocation services within other key data centres, including those of BME, CBOE Europe, Deutsche Boerse, Euronext, LME, Nasdaq Nordic and LSE. TNS delivers these services as a registered data vendor and application service provider with SIX, offering a cost-effective alternative to in-house infrastructure management.
