2.5 Gbit Network Connectivity
2.5 Gbit Network Connectivity - what does it really mean and what are the actual advantages of having it?
The network capacity of a web server determines how quickly your websites shall open and how many people shall be able to visit them simultaneously. Obviously, this isn't the only factor, but it's a really important one. On one side, regardless how optimized a specific website can be, bad connectivity will mean slower loading speeds or possibly service interruptions, particularly when only 1 Internet provider is used to access the hosting server. On the other hand, an excellent connection with low capacity will permit only a small number of visitors to check out the Internet site concurrently, while new visitors will have tough time loading any content. In this sense, the prosperity of your site depends not only on the content, but also on the site’s accessibility and loading speed. These two factors are influenced by the connection that the hosting server uses.
