🇬🇧 English

Nasdaq GEMX is updating its exchange rules to clearly treat non-adjacent intrafirm cabinet connections as a type of fiber connectivity and to revise the fees for that service. The change mainly affects exchange customers that lease multiple data cabinets at Nasdaq facilities and need physical connections between cabinets that are not next to each other. Compliance and operations teams should review the updated fee schedule and confirm whether their connectivity costs or budgeting assumptions change.
