Understanding bandwidth and transfer limits Print

  • 0

Bandwidth refers to port speed, while transfer refers to the amount of data sent and received during a billing period.

  • A 1 Gbps port describes the maximum link speed available to the server.
  • Monthly transfer limits describe the included traffic volume.
  • Public downloads, backups, CDN origin traffic, and streaming-like workloads can consume transfer quickly.
  • Use tools such as vnstat or provider graphs to monitor usage.

If you expect a traffic spike, contact support in advance so we can recommend the best plan or bandwidth option.
