Equidistant cables aren't equal enough

Our Services

In order to maintain trust in the ecosystem, exchanges need to be able to provide fair and equal access to the markets for all similarly situated market participants. Exchanges have historically addressed this by using equal length fibers within the data center. Equidistant fiber is an expensive, time-consuming and inflexible way of managing interconnections in a data center. Equidistant fiber is highly susceptible to manipulation, particularly at scale, and the lack of transparency and auditability are well understood challenges in the marketplace.
