Trading floors have always been at the forefront of technological change in the workplace. DAS have continually updated and improved their trading desk range to meet evolving technology requirements.
Many IT teams still look to the reliability and security of using multiple CPUs housed within the trading desk, while others have begun to adopt server-based processing systems using smaller ‘blade’ hardware.
Screen configurations are also changing, with more user favouring fewer, larger screens.
DAS provides exceptional workstations, with various levels of technology, power and data handling capabilities to meet the requirements of each client we work with.
Electrically height adjustable, fixed enclosure
T1 is the most ‘stripped down’ product in the OPTIMA range, and is best suited to thin-client and server-based technology, while still allowing a CPU to be supported from a leg riser or placed on a visible trolley.
Designed with the ‘thin-client’ user in mind, OPTIMA T2 features a sleek front-opening enclosure with interchangeable shelves to support lighter technology, without compromising the robustness of the trading desk.
A lighter aesthetic is created by using side-opening doors and technology enclosures that are raised further from the floor.
The OPTIMA T3 system has the capability to house 4 mid-sized CPU’s in a horizontal orientation, with all of the same smart cable management features as T4.
OPTIMA T4 is far and away our most widely used trading desk system, capable of accommodating up to 6 CPUs and supporting up to 12 screens.
Ergonomic doors provide a capacious CPU enclosure, within which trolleys are included to make the removal of technology as straight forward as possible. T4 has been used on hundreds of trading floors across the world, for good reason.
The DATUM Light-Trader system was designed to bridge the gap between trading desks and regular workstations, offering the potential to create a single aesthetic across an entire office floor.
Though ‘light’ in looks, this workstation shares key features with our OPTIMA trader desks and is more than capable of supporting up to 6 screens and 2 CPUs.
With the advent of lighter, and often smaller, CPUs and other technology, an increasing preference has been for this equipment to rise and fall with the desk in either the standing or sitting position. The T7 Ascend meets this requirement perfectly. The interchangeable technology enclosure, with drop-down hinged door, provides straightforward access to all items of technology and cables. Power sockets can either be accessed from the front, or the top of the enclosure, via the sliding work surface, which is a common feature on all DAS trading desks.
As an alternative to the traditional linear configuration, the 120° version of OPTIMA possesses all the same features and attributes of the linear version of the product, but with an alternative aesthetic and work surface shape.
While open in appearance, each user position offers the ability to accommodate 2 CPUs in front-hinged enclosures, which rise and fall with the work surface, and a mobile pedestal, if required. The curved ergonomic edge of the work surface is ideally shaped for use with wide format curved screens up to 49” wide.
