The new POPs are receive sites for MBI’s private bandwidth subscribers who transmit from Slough-LD4, Basildon and Frankfurt-FR2. Marseille and Madrid are also distribution POPs for the Quincy Extreme Data (QED) service. The bandwidth and market data services offer the lowest known commercial latency. For example, select futures market data sourced in Aurora, IL is distributed in Marseille in 41.552 milliseconds and in Madrid in 43.978 milliseconds (one-way).
