Date 07/11/2013

NexxCom Wireless, LLC, a leading provider of wireless ultra low latency trading networks has selected the latest nxLink Fair Bandwidth Management (FBM) solution from ENYX to enhance its proprietary ultra low latency wireless networks supporting key financial venues globally.
 
The selection was made after several months of technical due diligence by NexxCom’s engineering organization and in concert with key NexxCom clients.  NexxCom’s wireless solutions have a demonstrated track record of success minimizing latency, maximizing capacity and availability in a carrier class network solution.
 
“We’re very pleased with the performance of the nxLink appliance,” says S. Jay Lawrence, Chief Executive Officer at NexxCom, “After extensive testing and evaluation over the past months, the solution has demonstrated itself to police bandwidth, ensure port to port fairness and also that inefficient port utilization has no impact on other users of the service.  These results make it the right tool for policing our multi-client network platforms.”
 
The nxLink FBM solution provides NexxCom’s financial services clients engaged in electronic trading with robust bandwidth policing and network fairness while supporting ultra-low latency connectivity.  The nxLink appliance employs a unique traffic policing system to prevent user data from impacting other users or user performance on NexxCom multi client solutions. 


 
Emmanuel Pelle, ENYX board member said, ”We are delighted that nxLink FBM was chosen by NexxCom.  Our team worked closely with NexxCom and other customers for R&D purposes to develop new features needed in the marketplace. Our selection by NexxCom, who has built and is building so many high-end networks around the world is a welcome endorsement of our technology.”

 
The nxLink FBM is a state of the art FPGA solution deploying a specialist appliance on each end of the wireless link. Delivered as a standard network product the nxLink FBM easily fits in an existing infrastructure and offers web and SNMP based tools to provide constant monitoring of the wireless link health.
