If you host your internet sites on a dedicated hosting server, you would expect that they'll perform super fast and that the access speed to them shall depend exclusively on the Internet connection of the visitors. However, this will not be the case in case the hosting server has bad network connectivity or relies on a network card, which just can't cope with high volume of website traffic. If this is the situation, it shall take a while for your websites to load if many people open them simultaneously or visitors may see error messages. Thus you might lose visitors as probably many people will never return to your site in the event that they have experienced issues or slow loading speeds. This is the reason why you need to pay attention to the network components of any new server that you get and not only to the main hardware such as Central processing unit, Random access memory or hard disk.

Server Network Hardware in Dedicated Servers

The dedicated web hosting plans that we offer come with gigabit network cards which are tested along with all the other hardware components before and after any new machine is put together in order to make sure that we will not employ a faulty part which could cause a problem sooner or later. We also use the newest hardware for our internal network in the Chicago data center where we offer the dedicated plans. This includes routers, switches and hardware firewalls which can handle massive inbound and outgoing traffic to any server, whilst any traffic that isn't legitimate shall be blocked and will not consume your system resources. The constant access to the facility is ensured by using redundant backbone Internet providers. By doing this we ensure the fast and stable connection to all of our hosting machines, which means your websites and applications will be operational at top speed all the time.
