&ldquo;The two types of servers&mdash;managed and semi-managed&mdash; will have low and high bandwidth option, with the high bandwidth solution offering 100GB of traffic&mdash;twice the capacity of other comparable ranges in the market,&rdquo; Web Africa said in a press statement.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>According to CEO <a href=\"http:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/vb\/showthread.php?210057-Matthew-Tagg\">Matthew Tagg<\/a>, the new servers are aimed at larger companies with high bandwidth and hardware needs.&nbsp; &ldquo;The market is demanding faster boxes, better management facilities and more traffic,&rdquo; he says.&nbsp; &ldquo;Our new dedicated servers meet these requirements head-on at very generous rates.&rdquo;<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>The range features Nitro servers with KVM access, and is hosted in the <a href=\"http:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/vb\/showthread.php?212241-Teraco\">Teraco<\/a> data centres.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Web Africa&rsquo;s existing customers have the option of staying on their current dedicated server packages, or upgrading to the new range of servers.&nbsp; Any new customers will however be required to purchase an option in the new range.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Web Africa added that it will discontinue its USA dedicated hosting packages to forward the drive to retain as much content in SA as possible.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>&ldquo;We are committed to always finding the best possible solutions for our customers,&rdquo;
