UKU Host : Data Transfer Charges

Our connectivity offers no single point of failure - BGP4 routed to multiple tier 1 ISPs' bandwidth connection. BGP automatically takes care of failing over from one ISP to another, and thus provides redundancy.

Because we do not cap connectivity on any servers, your website will be available whenever demand is greater. A VLAN (free with your first dedicated server) comes with a set amount of data transfer. If you believe you will require more data transfer than the included quota you can of course purchase additional bandwidth in advance. Should you exceed any data transfer quota an excess charge will be levied.

How much Data Transfer will I need?

Probably a lot less than you might think. Here are some interesting facts about our dedicated servers:

Servers using less than 50Gb of data transfer per month 82%

Servers using 51Gb to 100Gb of data transfer per month 7%

Servers using 101Gb to 200Gb of data transfer per month 6%

Servers using more than 201Gb of data transfer per month 5%

Additional Data Transfer Charges

Included with your initial server is a generous data transfer allowance and a free VLAN. Should you need more data transfer for your VLAN(s), this costs just £5.00 per 75Gb - or approximately 1p per 150 Mb.
