- The project includes upgrades across US hubs, including Dallas, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle.
- The upgrade aims to support rising demand for US liquidity access outside regular hours, especially from Asia.
IPC Systems has
announced a multi-million dollar investment to expand its US network
infrastructure, adding new routes and upgrading key points of presence amid
rising demand for continuous market access and low-latency connectivity.
The move comes alongside continued
infrastructure expansion across the sector, including Beeks
Financial Cloud’s earlier report that it had signed its fifth exchange client,
extending its role in cloud-based market access and cross-border exchange
connectivity.
Similar developments across providers have highlighted sustained
demand for distributed, low-latency trading infrastructure linking exchanges,
brokers and data centres.
IPC Adds Routes, Upgrades Core PoPs
The project includes
more than 15 new high-capacity routes and upgrades to six existing PoPs in
Dallas, Houston, Denver, Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Jose. These
locations are set to be developed into core network hubs. IPC is also
establishing a new PoP in Seattle, aimed at improving connectivity to West
Coast cloud regions, including AWS US-West.

According to IPC, the
rollout will take place in phases, with initial routes expected to go live in
May 2026 and full completion scheduled for October 2026. The design focuses on
increased route diversity, higher backbone capacity and improved resiliency
across key US trading corridors.
US Liquidity Demand Drives Network
Expansion
The company said the
expansion is intended to meet growing demand for access to US liquidity outside
traditional market hours, particularly from Asia, as trading activity continues
to extend into overnight sessions. IPC also linked the buildout to broader
expectations of more continuous trading environments in US markets.
The Seattle hub is
positioned as a connectivity node between financial market participants and
major cloud infrastructure zones. IPC said the wider upgrade is designed to
support customers requiring high-availability network performance for trading
and data-heavy applications.
Paul Zatek, Global
Head of Data Sales at IPC Network Services, said demand for round-the-clock
access to US markets is increasing the need for more resilient global
connectivity, adding that the programme is designed to support continuous
execution strategies across regions.
