Orange Cuts NY-Brazil Latency

Telecommunications and network provider Orange Trading Solutions has reduced latency market data and trading connectivity for brokers and traders between New York and São Paulo, Brazil.

Telecommunications and network provider Orange Trading Solutions has reduced latency market data and trading connectivity for brokers and traders between New York and São Paulo, Brazil, Waters Technology reports. The latency was lowered for access between BM&F Bovespa and exchanges in North America. The move comes as a result of reducing latency over the network that Orange introduced at the end of 2010 by between 5% and 10% to provide roundtrip latency of 115 milliseconds. Low latency was achieved by taking alternative paths on either end of the dual undersea cables between Equinix’s NY4 datacenter in Secaucus, New Jersey and BM&F Bovespa’s datacenter.
