Cabling Options for Latency-Sensitive Applications | Corning

Optimize Your Data Center Network to Support Latency-Sensitive and Latency-Dependent Applications

Optimize Your Data Center Network to Support Latency-Sensitive and Latency-Dependent Applications

Latency is a measure of delay. In a network, latency measures the time it takes for information to get to its destination and back again. Several factors, including network components, can influence latency.

A structured cabling approach that enables equal distribution of uniform latency across all participants can help you support high-frequency trading and other latency-sensitive or latency-dependent applications. The EXACT solution is an extension of our multi award-winning EDGE™ portfolio, reducing the fiber cabling tolerances up to 80% where optical path system measurement is critical for the end-user service offering and supporting compliance with the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MIFID II) released by the European Securities and Markets Authorities (ESMA).
