Crosslake Fibre has strengthened its cross-border network footprint with the expansion of its Ultra-Low Latency Velocity platform into Equinix NY11 in Carteret, New Jersey — one of the most strategic financial trading ecosystems in North America. This new Point-of-Presence (PoP) adds a geographically distinct termination point to Crosslake’s Toronto–New York corridor, complementing existing connectivity into Equinix NY4 and creating new routing optionality for customers.
By entering the New York metro market through multiple, diverse physical pathways, Crosslake is providing capital markets, exchanges, market data vendors, banks, brokerages, and trading infrastructure providers with increased operational resilience. This added diversity helps mitigate single-path vulnerabilities, supports smarter failover design, and reduces risk associated with network congestion or unexpected disruptions — critical in environments where uptime, predictability, and deterministic performance are non-negotiable.
The expansion also enhances customer access to Crosslake’s Velocity service portfolio, which is engineered for consistent, ultra-low latency transport between Toronto and New York. Organizations can now architect connectivity strategies that balance speed, security, redundancy, and cost efficiency — whether they require dark fibre, managed wavelength services, or integrated low-latency routing aligned to multi-venue trading strategies.
Equinix NY11 plays a uniquely important role within global finance due to its proximity to major U.S. equity, derivatives, FX, and digital trading platforms. By establishing a PoP within the facility, Crosslake enables customers to interconnect directly inside the production environment of key liquidity venues, improving time-to-market, enabling more efficient workload placement, and simplifying cross-border network design.
With continued investment across its network, including this NY11 expansion, Crosslake Fibre reaffirms its commitment to delivering modern, highly scalable, carrier-neutral connectivity solutions purpose-built for performance-sensitive industries — today and as market demands evolve.
