We are now within few micro-seconds of the speed of light, we continue to strive to reach the limits of the physics. In our first two papers discussing the “Race to Zero” we discussed the advantages of using microwave radio technology in long-haul High Frequency Trading networks and millimeter wave radio technology in Metro High [...]

The Race to Zero: Metro Wireless High Frequency Trading Networks
We are now within few micro-seconds of the speed of light, we continue to strive to reach the limits of the physics. In our initial “Race to Zero” paper published in January, 2012 paper published in January, 2012 we described how using wireless microwave communications paths implemented by NeXXCom Wireless provide the capability to connect datacenters [...]

It has been estimated that each millisecond that network latency is reduced can be worth up to $100 million to a financial trading firm. When I read about High Frequency Trading, most often the subject matter is focused on FPGA’s, algorithms, fast switching, servers, co-location centers and technology improvements that shave microseconds from the latency [...]
