Avelacom, the ultra-low latency connectivity and infrastructure provider, has launched a new direct low-latency route between Bangkok and Tokyo, delivering less than 65 ms round-trip delay (RTD).
The new route was optimized through improvements to the terrestrial fiber segment, enabling a more direct path between Thailand and Japan. This establishes a new low-latency benchmark for Bangkok <> Tokyo connectivity and further strengthens Avelacom’s APAC network infrastructure.
One of the key use cases of the new route is low-latency connectivity between the Thailand Futures Exchange and the CME derivatives markets, particularly for gold and FX market data and trading.
Bangkok continues to strengthen its role as a regional financial and trading hub, increasing demand for deterministic, low-latency infrastructure across APAC. The route is designed for proprietary trading firms, institutional trading desks, and regional banks operating in global equity, FX, commodity, and derivatives markets, where network performance increasingly impacts execution efficiency and overall trading performance.
Aleksey Larichev, CEO of Avelacom, comments: “For us, network expansion is not limited to deploying additional Points of Presence. The underlying route architecture itself remains equally important. We continuously optimize long-distance terrestrial and submarine network segments to achieve the most direct paths and lowest possible latency between markets. Bangkok <> Tokyo is another example of how physical network optimization can establish new performance benchmarks for regional and global trading connectivity.”
The Bangkok <> Tokyo route further expands Avelacom’s global low-latency network connecting major traditional and digital asset trading venues across Europe, North America, APAC, and the Middle East.
