Description

The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC proposes to amend Section 115(f)(3) of Equity 7 so its Dedicated OUCH Port Infrastructure subscription service supports Day Session ports only, not Night Session ports. The optional service lets a member firm assign up to 30 OUCH ports to dedicated server infrastructure and costs $5,000 per month, plus a one-time $5,000 installation fee. Affected subscribers may continue using Night Session ports on shared server infrastructure at no additional infrastructure cost, subject to otherwise applicable OUCH port fees. The proposed rule change became effective upon filing and is operative November 2, 2026.
