Google takes 20% revenue share from AdX, so the overall CPC/CPM from ADX ads will be eventually higher than AdSense. Also, ADX is an ad exchange with several demand sides poured in, bidding for your impression and the result is a higher CPC per click. You can get an ADX account if you’ve more than 20 million visitors per month and you content is value rich. Also, having an ADX account means, you’re a valuable publisher and Google provides you with a dedicated account manager who can help you assist in making more revenue from the existing ads.

Google takes a lot of factors into account while approving an AdX account, the top most are the site quality, business model, future prospects and existing traffic.
