Centralized Telephony System:<\/h4>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The native IP layer allows to centralize all communications amongst a <strong>single telephony system<\/strong>; there is no need to maintain a dedicated PBX usually bound to a single site. Access to the Public Switched Telephony Network\u00a0(PSTN) is also achieved by the same equipment, whether a call is destined to a trader or a back-office phones.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">2. Virtualization:<\/h4>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">A large part of the new trading infrastructure is moving from physical to virtual. Infrastructure nodes can be hosted on virtualized servers located in difference and resilient data centers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The end-user screen layout is versatile and adaptable to the specific needs of the trader. Markets upgrades or additional applications can be easily uploaded to an installed trading terminal.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">3. Trading Seats Roaming:<\/h4>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Because the open standard TCP\/IP protocol is used for all communications, the new trading system can benefit from the whole company\u00a0data network\u00a0(i.e. LAN\/WAN\/VPN). As a direct consequence, traders can work from any location (i.e. branch &amp; home offices, disaster recovery seats) just like any other mobile worker of the company.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1370\" style=\"width: 940px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1370\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1370\" src=\"http:\/\/www.axylink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/Trading-Floor-Migration-Path.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"930\" height=\"617\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.axylink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/Trading-Floor-Migration-Path.jpg 930w, http:\/\/www.axylink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/Trading-Floor-Migration-Path-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1370\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Migration path to a full IP-based Infrastructure<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>IP Trade &#8211; In depth architecture &amp; components<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">1.

Turret Proxy to Open Line Dealing (TPO):<\/h4>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The core feature of the TPO is to provide dynamic conferencing for turrets, having full control over how different media streams are replicated to the conference participants. This capability is used to deliver the following services to the turrets: outside private lines (aka broker lines), shared DDI lines, advanced group intercoms &amp; conferencing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1408\" style=\"width: 690px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1408\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1408\" src=\"http:\/\/www.axylink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IP-Trade-Technical-Architecture.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"474\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.axylink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IP-Trade-Technical-Architecture.jpg 680w, http:\/\/www.axylink.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IP-Trade-Technical-Architecture-300x209.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1408\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">IP Trade Synoptic Architecture<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Technology Convergence When migrating to a full IP based system, the architecture of the trading infrastructure is drastically changed in the following manner: &nbsp; 1.
