In the event that you host your internet sites on a dedicated server, you would expect that they will perform very fast and that the access speed to them shall depend only on the Internet connection of the website visitors. However, this is not going to be the case in the event that the server has bad 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 long time for your websites to load if a lot of people open them concurrently or visitors might even see error messages. Therefore you could lose website visitors as almost certainly many people won't return to your internet site in case they have experienced difficulties or slow loading speeds. That's why you ought to pay attention to the network components of any new hosting server you purchase and not just to the main hardware which includes CPU, Ram memory or hard disk drive.

Server Network Hardware in Dedicated Servers

The Linux dedicated service that we provide come with gigabit network cards that are tested along with all the other hardware parts before and after any new hosting server is built as to ensure that we will not use a faulty part which might cause an issue eventually. We also use 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 can easily deal with massive inbound and outbound traffic to any hosting server, whilst any traffic that's not legitimate will be filtered and shall not use up your system resources. The continuous access to the facility is made sure by using redundant backbone Internet providers. By doing this we ensure the fast and secure connection to all of our hosting servers, which means your sites and applications shall be operational at top speed at all times.
