Why Use Exetel To Host Your Email Services?
Exetel Provides A Totally Secure And Redundant Facility
Environment
Exetel’s NSW PoP is located in a totally secure, first class, commercial data centre in the Sydney CBD. The facility exceeds Australian Standard AS 2834-1995 for a ‘Class A’ computer facility.
Redundancy
Exetel’s PoP has been designed redundantly in a way that all services will continue to operate if any single component fails. In building the NSW PoP Exetel only used the very highest specifications of the equipment it installed from only the best manufacturers:
| Routers | Cisco 7206VRX/1G |
| Switches | Foundry |
| Servers | Intel Processor IBM 305x class servers |
| Mirrored SCSI Drives |
Internet Access and Bandwidth
The Exetel NSW PoP is connected to and from Exetel users via redundant ATM links from Telstra Wholesale and to and from other users, in Australia and anywhere else in the world, using bandwidth from Powertel and Optus. Both the ATM and Internet ingress/egress bandwidth are provisioned at levels well above the peak usage of all users at all times.
Both Powertel and Optus have extensive Australian Domestic and International connections with multiple diverse interconnection points with other major global networks. In terms of Internet access from Australia the combination of these two carriers provide excellent access paths to any location in the world.
Service Availability
The Exetel hosting services have been designed to provide low cost hosting with high availability. The servers provide all of the features required for a processional small business site, with none of the ‘frills’ that can lead to performance or reliability degradation.
Full hardware, software and data redundancy is maintained at all times as ‘insurance’ that in the worst possible case services can be restored in the shortest time.
Exetel Provides A Painless And Fast Set Up Service
