Server Network Hardware
Discover just what networking hardware a dedicated server offers and how it will influence your website’s performance.
How fast a website will open depends not only on the Internet connection of the visitor, but also on the connection of the server where the internet site is hosted and on the network infrastructure - routers, server network card, and so on. Slow connection or hardware which is unable to deal with a high volume of incoming and outbound traffic can have strong influence on the user experience of your site visitors and the efficiency of your site because people shall most probably see error messages that the website isn't available or it shall take a long time for your content to load. In the event that this kind of a thing happens, it is not likely that the visitors shall return to the site. For this reason you need to always check out the connectivity of any hosting machine that you obtain and not only the main hardware components like hard drive, processor and physical memory.
Server Network Hardware in Dedicated Servers
The dedicated servers that we provide feature gigabit network cards that are tested together with all the other hardware components before and after any new hosting server is built as to ensure that we won't use a faulty part that could cause an issue eventually. We also use the most current hardware for our internal network inside the Chicago data center where we offer the dedicated plans. That includes routers, switches and hardware firewalls which can certainly handle substantial incoming and outgoing traffic to any hosting machine, while any traffic that isn't legitimate shall be filtered and shall not take up your system resources. The uninterrupted access to the center is made certain by using redundant backbone Internet suppliers. This way we ensure the fast and stable connection to all of our servers, which means your sites and apps shall be working at top speed all the time.
