As previously announced, Nasdaq Third Party Services was introduced in response to increased industry bandwidth requirements, to provide additional resiliency, and the expansion of data feeds, proprietary services, markets, and asset classes available in Nasdaq's Carteret, NJ data center.

Under the amended SEC filing customers who only receive the UTDF and UQDF feeds over their hand-off(s) to Third Party Services may receive one free physical connection at no cost. Furthermore, customers may now enable the UTDF and UQDF feeds over a 1G Ultra connection, with the appropriate management sign-off.

The fee waiver has been extended through April 30, 2017 and the migration period has been extended through May 31, 2017.

Proposed Fees

Effective May 1, 2017, installation and monthly fees will be as follows¹:

Connectivity Type Install Fee Monthly Recurring Fee
1G Ultra to Third Party Services Connection² $1,500 $2,000
10G Ultra to Third Party Services Connection $1,500 $5,000
10G Ultra for UTP Only (UTDF, UQDF) $0 $0
