Our Network
What kind of connection does NetworkPixels have to the
Internet backbone?
NetworkPixels offers a stable, redundant hosting environment
built on state-of-the-art technologies. All of our servers are
housed at the Softlayer Datacenter located at the heart of
Texas, Dallas.

SoftLayer is the first true on-demand hosting solution with
public and private networks to ensure complete control over the
outsourced environment. Comprised of two separate and distinct
redundant network architectures, the SoftLayer
network-within-the-network design delivers enterprise level
hosting services while adding complete management and
flexibility to the outsourced environment.
Cisco Routers & Switches - 6500, 3750, 2900 Series
routers and switches with gigabit speeds available from the
individual server to the Internet.
Redundant GigE Backbone - Multi-router gigabit
connections to the Internap, SAVVIS, VERIO/NTT, and Abovenet
core backbone exchanges located in the INFOMART in Dallas, Texas
Traffic Management & Analysis - Utilizing Peakflow from
Arbor Networks coupled with Netflow data from Cisco routers and
switches, network engineers continuously monitor the health,
reliability, and performance of the network. Historical analysis
is critical for demand and capacity planning.
Network IDS, IPS & DDOS - Industry best solutions from
Tipping Point are utilized to guard against denial of service,
malicious traffic, viruses, malware, phishing, spyware and other
types of Internet threats via wire speed detection and
remediation coupled with automatic and zero day response.
Private VLAN & Port Control - All servers reside on
private VLANs for security purposes. Additional servers or
firewalls added after the initial install can be placed on
existing VLANs or new VLANs without service interruptions or IP
changes. Port control is also available to change port speeds
from 10 / 100 / 1000Mbps to further manage security and
bandwidth usage.
Bandwidth Graphs & Alerts - Detailed bandwidth graphs
with historical data and projected monthly usage are available
for all public server ports. Custom bandwidth alerts notify of
bandwidth usage, spikes, or overages.
