The 123Systems Fully Redundant Advantage:

123Systems utilizes one of the most sophisticated and redundant networks in the hosting industry. When you purchase a new VPS from 123Systems and it is placed online, you will see firsthand the 123Systems Fully Redundant Advantage.

Your server if first connected, via two NICs, to a switch on our network. The switch is connected to two cores. The cores form an interlocking mesh of connectivity with two border routers on the front-end of our network. Both cores are not only connected to both border routers, but also to each other. Between the core and the border routers, there are a total six bundled connections which each consist of at least 2+ strands of fiber with automatic failover between the fiber pairs. The bundled configuration allows us to scale the internal network infinitely by simply adding more fiber pairs to the bundle. The border routers are then linked to the internet via multiple tier 1 transit providers.

The result?

Peace of mind that your server is situated on a highly reliable network.
