Eurex will introduce its new trading architecture in December 2012. As the system throughput of the new trading architecture is expected to increase significantly, bandwidth requirements for Eurex trading participants’ network connectivity will also increase.
Deutsche Börse’s network backbone as well as each Eurex participant’s network connection must be upgraded to comply with the higher bandwidth requirements. To provide all participants with appropriate network connectivity for the new trading architecture in a timely manner, Eurex will shortly start to proactively upgrade the physical connections.
Starting April 2012, the Technical Account Managers will contact all participants to discuss the individual migration and arrange a connection test for the proactively initiated physical line upgrade.
Based on the physical line upgrades, Eurex will introduce new connectivity options for participants in order to support the new interface landscape of the new trading architecture. As soon as the pricing for the new connectivity options will be available, participants are requested to order their desired new connectivity options to enable the services for the new trading architecture. Please note that the individual network upgrade or at least a temporary modification of the current connection is required for connecting to the simulation environment of the new trading architecture as of September 3, 2012. The individual network upgrade is mandatory to be able to use the new trading architecture in production which is scheduled to launch on December 3, 2012.
