In the event that you host your websites on a dedicated hosting server, you would expect that they shall perform ultra fast and that the access speed to them shall depend only on the Internet connection of the site visitors. Having said that, this won't be the case if the hosting server has poor network connectivity or relies on a network card, which simply just cannot deal with high volume of website traffic. If this is the case, it shall take quite a long time for your websites to load if a lot of people open them concurrently or visitors might even see error messages. Consequently you might lose website visitors as probably many people won't revisit your site in the event that they have experienced difficulties or slow loading speeds. That's why you need to pay attention to the network components of any new hosting machine which you buy and not just to the main hardware such as CPU, Random access memory or hard disk.

Server Network Hardware in Dedicated Hosting

The Linux dedicated hosting we offer incorporate gigabit network cards that are tested together with all the other hardware parts before and after any new machine is put together as to make sure that we won't use a faulty part that could cause an issue after some time. We also use the most current hardware for our internal network in the Chicago data center where we offer the dedicated plans. That includes routers, switches and hardware firewalls which can handle enormous inbound and outbound traffic to any server, while any traffic which is not legitimate shall be blocked and will not use up your system resources. The uninterrupted access to the facility is ensured by using redundant backbone Internet providers. In this way we ensure the fast and secure connection to all our hosting machines, which means that your internet sites and applications will be working at top speed all of the time.
