Telstra Octagon leverages the company’s low latency subsea
network, direct exchange connections to support hyper-competitive
global asset, currency, commodities and futures trading
activities.
Telstra, a leading global telecommunications and technology
company, has announced the launch of the Telstra Octagon, a global
financial trading solution that provides organizations with low
latency connectivity directly into eight of the world’s most
valuable futures and commodities marketplaces.
Designed for multi assets, equities, fixed income, commodities,
money markets, forex, futures, and derivatives trading, the Telstra
Octagon platform gives organizations the ability to trade faster
across key exchanges. Using the Telstra Octagon, organizations can
leverage direct connections to access trading floors in the U.S.
and Asia-Pacific region, including the CME and ICE exchanges in the
U.S. as well Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea
and Japan. The state-of-the-art connectivity can help companies
speed price discovery, risk analysis, smart order routing, flow and
matching, trade execution and settlement.
“The Telstra Octagon was designed to enable global financial
trading firms to thrive in the hyper-competitive trading world of
today where the difference between success and failure is measured
in milliseconds,” said Nicholas Collins, president, Telstra
Americas.
The platform provides increased control over trading performance
thanks to Telstra’s trans-Pacific subsea cable networks. Telstra
owns and operates the largest subsea cable system with more than
250,000 miles of subsea cables globally that connects the world
with Asia, currently carrying nearly one-third of all Asia-Pacific
internet traffic.
Priority end-to-end access to the networks enables financial and
trading organizations to respond to market-moving events as they
happen and execute investment strategies across Asian, Australian
and U.S. capital markets. Additional benefits include Telstra’s
network redundancy, resilience and market access.
Deep technology experience and local support staff throughout
Asia enables Telstra to quickly implement a pre-built, yet highly
adaptable trading platform that can be specifically customized for
each organization.
“These are challenging and unprecedented times for global
finance, and we believe that the Telstra Octagon will provide both
established and upcoming organizations the ability to trade faster
across key exchanges between North America and the dynamic markets
in the Asia-Pacific region,” Collins continued.
