PROJECT EXPRESS
Hibernia Atlantic's GFN is continuing to push its borders with lowest latency routing options and extended reach. Hibernia just announced its plans to construct the lowest latency transatlantic submarine fiber optic cable network, with sub 60 ms latency, connecting New York to London. This will be a first in transatlantic cable history. We call this Project Express.

A state-of-the-art submarine network build, Express will be the shortest route from New York to London that will initially be lit with 40G technology and can be upgraded to 100G technology in the future. Express includes an entirely new, all marine, four- fiber pair, transatlantic optic cable system. This new route, which will be the first new transatlantic cable in nearly ten years, is significantly lower latency than all other transatlantic cable systems. For more information, email express@hiberniaatlantic.com.
HIBERNIA SECURE
Dedicated to securely connecting the financial industry, including banks, financial exchanges and trading firms, Hibernia’s GFN now provides a resilient, reliable, dedicated platform, ‘Hibernia Secure’, to ensure safer and faster trading. With service available from 10 Mbps to 1 Gbps, ‘Hibernia Secure’ offers one failover route that avoids common, congested corridors, such as the waterways around New York and London, in case of regional failure.
Providing an extra layer of diversity and security, ‘Hibernia Secure’ will automatically re-route GFN traffic to the client’s secondary route choice in the unlikely event of signal loss. Service will then be re-routed back to the primary or faster route as soon as that route becomes available.

‘Hibernia Secure’ also provides a safe-time window, from 11 PM to 2 AM EST, for network maintenance, thereby insuring optimal network performance during major trading hours in the US and EU regions. This includes third-party vendors to ensure end-to-end compliance.
