Liffe announced that the Exchange's dual 100Mbps connectivity, and purpose-built colocation facility went live successfully on Monday 14 July. Together these two enhancements offer customers faster access to Liffe's markets.
The fiftyfold increase in the capacity of the new network (from 2Mbps to 100Mbps), which uses NYSE Euronext's SFTI (Secure Financial Transaction Infrastructure) network, means that market data can now be sent uncompressed to customers. This will further shave the time it takes for data to reach them, enable the Exchange to supply full market depth information on all products and accelerate order execution on LIFFE CONNECT
