Yipes Enterprise Services, Inc. (www.yipes.com), today announced HawkEyeSM fn, a performance measurement system for its Yipes FinancialConnect SM platform.

Yipes FinancialConnect! is the first Ethernet-based extranet for electronic trading capable of directly delivering high-speed financial market data to hedge funds, banks, brokers, and institutional investors.

These measuring tools give financial institutions greater visibility into network performance and speeds. Traders are able to gain a very granular view of performance that enables them to determine the fastest paths to critical trading platforms.

"Financial customers want to be able to make trades faster, and that requires getting the best performance possible from their networks," said John Panzica, general manager, financial services sector, of Yipes. "Not only does HawkEye fn give our financial customers the most extensive view of network performance, but also our Yipes FinancialConnect! platform offers the outstanding performance-high speed, low latency, low jitter, high availability, and high reliability-that only Ethernet can provide."
