Dedicated & Fast Backbones
Some web hosting providers operate other services, which slows down their other services’ connection to the Internet.
Since we are not an Internet Access provider, our scalable bandwidth lines are entirely dedicated to web hosting. Industry analysts claim that telecom circuit failure is to blame for nearly 70% of all server downtime. Because of our unique Internet connection backbones, we do not need to connect to the Internet via a telecom circuit as most of our competitors do.
Instead, our connections run from our network directly to Cogent, Level 3’s and AT&T’s points of presence. No matter what our client’s data transfer needs are, we have the resources to meet them.
We rely on three backbones; AT&T, Level 3 & the Cogent GigE (Gigabit Ethernet) network connection. GigE is running at 1000mbs compared to OC3 at 155mbs or OC12 at 622mbs.
All routers are deployed in a redundant configuration, with fully redundant power supplies and route switch processors. They’re equipped with battery backup equipment and emergency generators. In fact, the architecture enables immediate rerouting around outages for almost instantaneous service restoration. The MIS Access Redundancy Options optimize the performance of multiple, dedicated Internet circuits while eliminating single points of failure in the access circuits and routers.
With these three carriers, our router has up to 150,000 possible routes to send each packet of data. Because your site will actually be directed connected to a backbone, you will be provided with one of the fastest, most reliable connections available.
