As quick as your Internet connection may be, it shall do no good to access online content if the remote hosting machine has poor connection or in the event that its network card has low capacity and cannot take care of all the incoming and outgoing site traffic. In the event that you have your own hosting server, this can significantly impact the consumer experience of your visitors and if they are unable to open your website due to capacity issues or the pages load slowly, they will most probably close the website and it is quite possible that they will never return. In this light, when you obtain a new hosting server, it's important to check not only the most obvious attributes like hard disk, monthly traffic quota, cpu speed and physical memory, but also the bandwidth plus the network card as to ensure that even in the case of serious traffic to and from the server, your website visitors will not experience connection-related problems.
Server Network Hardware in Dedicated Servers
The dedicated web hosting plans which we offer you include gigabit network cards which are tested along with all other hardware components before and after any new server is built as to make certain that we will never use a faulty part that might cause an issue at some point. We also employ the latest hardware for our internal network within the Chicago data center where we offer the dedicated plans. That includes routers, switches and hardware firewalls which could easily cope with huge incoming and outbound traffic to any hosting server, while any traffic which is not legitimate shall be filtered and will not use up your system resources. The continuous access to the facility is ensured by using redundant backbone Internet suppliers. In this way we ensure the fast and stable connection to all our hosting machines, which means your websites and applications will be up and running at top speed all the time.
