National Stock Exchange (NSE) continuously reviews and enhances its connectivity offering, based on feedback and demand from market participants. While higher bandwidth connectivity options are available for members within the Exchange’s co-location facility for other segments such as Equity, Equity Derivatives and Currency Derivatives, these higher bandwidth options are not available for Commodity Derivatives because co-location is not permitted in commodities. With Commodity derivatives now being available on over 25 products on the NSE, across Energy, Bullion and Base metals baskets, the demand for bandwidth has increased for POP based Leased line connectivity. In line with the above, Exchange is now pleased to announce the availability of additional higher bandwidth options for last mile connectivity under leased line offering available to members across POP network by Telecom Network Integrator (‘TNI’) – SIFY Technologies Limited. Accordingly, members can now avail last mile connectivity with bandwidth options of 50 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 150 Mbps, 200 Mbps, 300 Mbps, in addition to the 4 Mbps, 10 Mbps, 20 Mbps, 30 Mbps options. The new bandwidth options shall be offered under all the POP’s offered by Telecom Network Integrator (‘TNI’) – SIFY Technologies Limited. With over 240 members now setup to trade Commodity Derivatives on NSE and the record increase in volumes and participation, the increased bandwidth options will provide enhanced and wider range of options for market access for members. With the introduction of additional higher bandwidth options, members participating in Commodity Derivatives segment can now subscribe to Multicast Tick by Tick (MTBT) market data broadcast on higher bandwidth leased lines up to 300 Mbps vis a vis current bandwidth option of 20 Mbps. A brief on leased line connectivity offering is available on Exchange website under link Types of connectivity.
