Eurex
As previously announced in Eurex circular 021/12, Eurex will introduce its new trading architecture in December 2012. The substantially higher performance and throughput of the new trading architecture require higher bandwidths on participants’ network connections. These changes will be addressed with a restructuring of the Eurex connectivity portfolio and pricing while the session concept will be continued with a similar approach and pricing as of today.
This circular gives information about the pricing for the connectivity to the new Eurex trading architecture. In order to support the migration of trading participants and vendors as well as to account for possible redundant infrastructure during the transition phase, there will be a fee holiday for the connectivity to the new Eurex trading architecture until March 31, 2013, the currently expected end of the migration phase.
Moreover, in order to further reduce connectivity costs for Eurex trading participants and vendors during the migration phase, the introductory price for 10 Gbit/s connections in Co-Location (Equinix) to the Eurex® system of EUR 3,000/month per line will be extended transitionally until March 31, 2013. From April 1, 2013 the price for 10 Gbit/s connections will be EUR 4,500/month per line (instead of the current EUR 6,000/month per line).
