MIAX Options and MIAX Pearl Options - Reminder and Updates - Deprecation of 10G LL Infrastructure and the addition of two 10G ULL Switches
As previously announced in the February 4, 2021 Alert, MIAX Options and MIAX Pearl Options will deprecate the 10G Low Latency (LL) switch infrastructure in June 2021. All 10G LL cross connects must be migrated to the 10G Ultra Low Latency (ULL) switch infrastructure. Moreover, coinciding with this migration, the 10G ULL infrastructure will expand to include 2 additional switches.
The timeline is as follows:
- The two additional switches will be added to the MIAX and Pearl Options shared extranet 10G ULL infrastructure
- 1st switch on Monday, April 12, 2021
- 2nd switch on Monday, April 26, 2021
- Firms wishing to provision new cross connects in the additional two 10G ULL switches can submit LOA’s beginning March 29, 2021 (formerly April 5, 2021).
- Firms currently using the 10G LL infrastructure can begin the migration any time but must be completed by June 30, 2021. The existing 10G LL fiber cross connects can be used to complete the migration to the 10G ULL infrastructure (i.e. no new cross connects will be required).
