London routing pair
Two routers in London provide separate paths for inbound broker and liquidity-provider connectivity.
A clear, dual-path network approach for execution-sensitive FX workloads—built around London routing and an Amsterdam backup location.
Topology overview
Equinix LD8 and Telehouse North each feed both London routers. The topology then flows into dual Juniper MX304 routers and low-latency Arista 7060SX2-48YC6 switches, with Amsterdam shown as the backup path/site.

Resilience by design
The following illustrates the architectural roles we can discuss when planning a deployment.
Two routers in London provide separate paths for inbound broker and liquidity-provider connectivity.
Dual switching paths help avoid relying on a single switch or server-facing interface.
A secondary location or route can be part of a recovery design; the exact service requires confirmation.
Separate switching and upstream paths support maintenance isolation without relying on one network element.
Measure the right thing
Meaningful FX network latency measurements require authorised gateway IP addresses or endpoints, their protocol and port details, and probes in the intended data centre. Public websites cannot substitute for FIX, MT4 or MT5 endpoints.
