A financial market data network having a lowered overall latency includes communication interfaces, specialized switches having internal switching fabric, and feed handlers that all facilitate communications between financial exchanges and consumers of financial market data therefrom. A feed handler is situated within or proximate a specialized switch and is arranged to receive raw financial market data directly from financial exchanges without the data first traveling through any switching fabric. The feed handler is adapted to process the received raw financial market data into a normalized format before the normalized financial market data is ever routed through any switching fabric, prior to being sent to consumers. The communication interfaces can include I/O ports located on the specialized switches, and the feed handlers can include one or more computer processors or servers. Additional internal switch components can include packet processors and storage components that store network protocols and/or layer tables.
