Trading Floor Environments
 Around
fifty percent of Network Intelligence’s customer
base is in the financial sector and/or in the City of
London. The majority of these Clients have some form
of trading facility.
From securities and bonds to equities, commodities
and energy our Clients operate ‘real-time information’
based businesses. The stability and constant availability
of this information and the infrastructure that delivers
it is the very lifeblood of these companies. Meeting
industry compliance criteria is a statutory requirement.
Network Intelligence has extensive knowledge and experience
in the design, specification and installation of trading
floor solutions.
In close co-operation with space planners and bespoke
desking providers NIL advise not only on the technology
that supports these environments but in the way the
trading facility actually works. Business groups and
their proximity to back office and administrative staff
are pre-requisite consideration as much as the design
of dual redundant and fault tolerant services to the
desk top.
Our scope of operation thus extends from the layout
of the trading floor to the distribution of trading
system applications and associated technologies.
Resilience is the key to the technological design and
NIL investigates dual routing of external circuit providers,
diverse routing of internal copper and fibre cabling
as well as the dual redundancy of LAN and WAN hardware
configuration.
Functionality at the desk-top is a major focus and
Network Intelligence works closely with trading system
suppliers and telephony providers to deliver fully integrated
trading platforms, including market data feeds such as
Reuters and Bloomberg.
Environmental and support issues, such as heat output
and application administration, often result in the implementation
of PC/Server farms which, in turn, affects the way we
design and layout comms rooms that support the trading
facility.
