IRESS optical network (ION)

Direct connectivity leaves nothing but fibre optics between you and a venue.

ION is an ultra-low latency, high bandwidth, fully managed network for Australian marketplace connectivity. ION provides maximum speed for market data and order execution.

 

Industry leading inter-capital connectivity.

Through a combination of ultra-low latency optical networking technologies, shortest path physical links and dedicated high capacity 1Gbps+ links between each city, we provide an industry-leading network both within and spanning the key trading centres across Australia. This network connects Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth to the trading hub of Sydney.

 

Direct and diverse.

The highest levels of resilience are achieved through the use of dark fibre technology, which requires:

  • no carrier network equipment - the source of 80% of network outages
  • no reliance on extra carrier data centres - eliminating a source of power outages.

Fully diverse, with no common route over the entire path between sites. Best possible dual path redundancy is achieved by using a single dark fibre technology provider.
