Nasdaq Point of Presence (POP)

Through our POP service, Nasdaq offers our customers redundant high-speed, low latency fiber network handoffs in strategic financial data centers to extend our world-class service outside of our primary data center in Carteret, NJ (Equinix NY11). Nasdaq Canada customers connect to our production environment in Toronto, Ontario, Canada via a POP in the Equinix TR2 facility.

Our POPs give customers the ability to simply cross-connect to the Nasdaq network and receive all of our market data access and order entry capabilities as they would in our primary data centers in NY11 and TR2. Previously, customers would have had to either purchase a dedicated telecommunication circuit, or contract with a vendor to connect from outside of our primary data centers.
