Communicate at high speed (7)

I believe the answer is:
express
'communicate' is the definition.
(expressing is a kind of communicating)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for express that I've seen before include "Intimate - squeeze out" , "air" , "Squeeze out - speak" , "for a specific purpose?" , "Speak - fast" .)
