The recent support into IPC’s FX Hub follows after LMAX’s link with Equinix’s NY4 data center back in early September. LMAX had already been active globally via a series of assimilations with other matching engines worldwide, including LD4 and TY3.

Equinix’s NY4 is a virtual nexus, constituting a total of 49 sovereign exchanges that lease space. Collectively, the data center completes upwards of 9.6 million messages per second through its fiber-optic cables, which provides the infrastructure for electronic trades representing trillions of dollars’ worth of equities, derivatives, currencies, fixed-income, and FX assets.

IPC FX Hub currently caters to global FX markets through a number of strategic data centers in markets such as London, New York, Tokyo, Singapore, Frankfurt, Moscow, Zurich, Chicago, and Hong Kong. For its part, IPC Financial Markets Network portfolio includes a cascade of data connectivity solutions, such as the Connexus Extranet, Connexus Ethernet, Connexus WAN and others.

According to Ralf Duken, Head of Networks & Security of LMAX Exchange, in a recent statement on the integration: "LMAX Exchange aims to provide its clients with a range of flexible connectivity options. We look forward to working with the IPC FX Hub community in our newly launched New York-based matching engine and continue to provide reliable and consistent, ultra-low latency Execution to all our clients."
