As one of the world’s top stock exchanges and the largest in Asia,
building and maintaining a cutting-edge network featuring world-class
reliability and performance has always been key for TSE. As technology evolves
alongside rapidly changing customer needs, TSE required an upgraded, innovative
network infrastructure with the ability to integrate across all financial
trading in Japan, which Juniper is able to provide.

News Highlights:
- TSE has selected the Juniper Networks® MX480 3D
Universal Edge Router as the
network device best-placed to meet these criteria for ‘arrownet v2’,
the network platform responsible for its proprietary trading system ‘arrowhead’. - Previously, ‘arrownet’
users required separate network connections based on factors such as the
environment (production or test) and distribution method (unicast or
multicast), resulting in higher networking costs. - With the MX480, TSE can now
leverage Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) to deliver multiple services
over the same network, which increases network efficiency, reduces latency
and provides significant cost savings. - The MX480 also delivers
significant scale and performance improvements, including a 50 percent
increase in TSE access points and 10Gbps network service delivery to its
users. - With support for 40GbE and
100GbE interfaces and system capacity that scales beyond 2.8Tbps, the
MX480 provides a future-proof path to meet the continued growth of ‘arrownet
v2’. - The MX480 and other
previously-deployed Juniper network elements all run the Junos® operating system, which provides TSE with network-wide operational and
feature consistency.
