In case you host your sites on a dedicated hosting server, you would expect that they'll perform extremely fast and that the access speed to them will depend only on the Internet connection of the site visitors. Nevertheless, this won't be the case if the hosting server has poor network connectivity or relies on a network card, which just cannot handle high volume of website traffic. If this is the case, it will take a while for your sites to load if a lot of people open them simultaneously or visitors may see error messages. Because of this you could lose website visitors as almost certainly many people won't revisit your internet site if they have experienced issues or slow loading speeds. This is why you must pay attention to the network components of any new server which you buy and not just to the main hardware which includes CPU, Random access memory or hard disk.

Server Network Hardware in Dedicated Servers

The Linux dedicated web hosting plans we offer include gigabit network cards that are tested alongside all the other hardware parts before and after any new machine is assembled as to make certain that we won't employ a faulty part that might cause an issue at some point. We also employ the newest hardware for our internal network in the Chicago data center where we offer the dedicated plans. That includes routers, switches and hardware firewalls that can easily deal with massive incoming and outgoing traffic to any hosting machine, while any traffic that is not legitimate shall be filtered and won't consume your system resources. The constant access to the facility is made certain by using redundant backbone Internet suppliers. In this way we guarantee the fast and stable connection to all of our hosting machines, so your websites and apps shall be functioning at top speed at all times.
