Network Redundancy

We multi vendor Cisco and Foundry Routers and Switches throughout our network to provide the ultimate in network performance. We offer a high level of availability of at least 99.95% (SLA).

Our strength which differs us from many other transit providers lies in our high redundancy and low latency network. Our network is BGP4 multi homed with multiple providers which ensures much greater reliability than getting connectivity from just one provider. These include Level3, MFN, NTT etc... We take away the headache and overhead of the hardware and admin required to connect to multiple providers.

We also have multiple backup providers which can take over automatically were any of our main providers were to fail. Our backbone relies on multiple routers from separate providers to ensure maximum hardware redundancy. Should any router fail, we have others in place which automatically take over. Our network infrastructure is also split across multiple London facilities, with multiple routes between the locations, so should there be any problem at one facility, the other facilities can still carry the traffic for your connection. .

We have 3 main colocation facilities in a Redundant mesh network to ensure maximum reliability. So should any location fail for any reason, the two other locations will take over. Our core network is designed to take up to 25Gbps, with our core routers capacity exceeding 300Gbps and can increase as required. We have well over 2Gbps external capacity coming in through redundant routes into Redbus.

We have agreements with over 400 ISP's in the UK, Europe and US to provide your servers with the optimum route for their traffic, removing unnecessary hops. These include NTL, BT, Telewest, Nildram and many more. We currently provide Internet connectivity to over 10,000 servers and machines in the UK. We also have links into all the major exchanges such as LIPEX, LONAP, LINX, MANAP, AMX-IX, BN-IX, GL-IX, NL-IX etc... We also include peering such as the BBCi.

We are continuingly upgrading our network to ensure we provide you with the performance and reliability you should expect. It is currently running at less than 20% of its capacity.
