Access network

The communication network of CFFEX has been connected for the first time to existing securities and futures communication networks. Relevant institutions have three options of connection to CFFEX: (1) indirect connection via the existing three-exchange connection channel for futures trading to CFFEX ("Three-Exchange Connection"); (2) establishment of an access network through direct connection via WAN circuit to CFFEX ("Direct Connection"); or (3) indirect connection to CFFEX through the interconnection channel in the custodian computer room ("Custodian  Connection").

The Direct Connection solution of CFFEX offers SDH and MSTP circuits of China Telecom, China Unicom and China Mobile with a bandwidth range of 2Mbps to 10Mbps. Southern and Northern members can choose the appropriate telecom carriers according to their actualities. A larger-scale member can choose to use two telecom carriers for dual-link connection to CFFEX to ensure reliability.
