• Part of a series of optimisations, delivering the shortest network paths from London and from Frankfurt to the Euronext Exchange in Bergamo, Italy
• Deployment of hollowcore fibre has further improved performance, delivering a market leading ultra-low latency connectivity solution to customers
• Continues euNetworks’ pioneering track record, successfully deploying advanced optical fibre technology for commercial use.

LONDON: #fibre--euNetworks Group Limited (“euNetworks”), a European critical bandwidth infrastructure company, has completed a series of optimisations on its ultra-low latency routes to Euronext’s core data centre in Bergamo, Italy. The optimisation work resulted in bringing the shortest fibre paths to market. In addition, euNetworks has undertaken its longest ever hollowcore fibre (HCF) deployment in this system and for the first time, within the long haul intercity section of a route. This eclipses a 40 kilometre deployment by the company, announced in January 2023 and has delivered market leading ultra-low latency route performance to Euronext, exclusively for use by euNetworks customers.

euNetworks has now successfully deployed hollowcore fibre in five parts of its euTrade network platform — ultra-low latency fibre-based routes dedicated to supporting the bandwidth needs of the financial services and trading community. The company has pioneered the integration of this advanced optical fibre technology within its network systems, and is the European telecom industry’s technical experts in the deployment and commercial use of hollowcore fibre.

Kevin Dean, Interim CEO of euNetworks, said, “Hollowcore fibre offers approximately one-third lower latency than regular single mode fibre, so deploying this advanced optical fibre within our already optimised ultra-low latency routes and across our euTrade platform, delivers true market-leading network performance to our customers. This deployment is also our first in a long haul section of network, and I am hugely proud of the teams’ accomplishments.”

Dean added, “For over a decade euNetworks has consistently invested in, augmented and optimised ultra-low latency routes into key trading exchanges across Europe, and we remain committed to this strategy. Our focus is to deliver the best possible bandwidth solutions for our customers between key locations, and these deployments and optimisations reinforce the market-leading connectivity we provide to the financial services community.”
