Summary
Cboe EDGX Exchange is raising the monthly fee for its 10 Gb physical ports starting right away. This change affects traders and firms using these high-speed connections, meaning they'll pay more each month to stay connected. The fee hike kicks in immediately, so users should be ready for the new cost on their next bill.
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
10 Gb Port Monthly Fee Hike
If your firm uses a 10 Gb physical port to connect to Cboe EDGX, the monthly fee rises from $7,500 to $8,500 per port. The change was filed on May 15, 2025 and became effective immediately, so the higher charge will appear on the next monthly bill after that date.
Single Port Covers Affiliate Access
A single 10 Gb physical port continues to be charged only once per month even if you use that port to access EDGX and its affiliate exchanges. You will be assessed the single monthly fee (now $8,500) per physical port regardless of how many affiliated exchanges you access through it.
1 Gb Port Fee Remains Unchanged
If your firm uses a 1 Gb physical port, the monthly fee remains $2,500 and is not changing under this filing. Firms with lower capacity needs can continue to purchase the 1 Gb option at the $2,500 monthly rate.
