A private proxy type that allows multiple devices to connect simultaneously is a shared proxy. In a shared proxy setup, multiple users share the same proxy server and its resources. Each user is assigned a unique IP address from a pool of available addresses.
With shared proxies, multiple devices within a business or organization can connect to the proxy server and use the shared IP addresses concurrently. This enables multiple users or devices to access the internet through the same proxy server, sharing the server's resources, bandwidth, and IP addresses.
Shared proxies are often more cost-effective compared to dedicated proxies since the resources are shared among multiple users. However, it's important to note that shared proxies may have limitations in terms of performance, connection speed, and IP reputation since they are shared among multiple users. Additionally, the actions of other users sharing the same proxy server can potentially impact the browsing experience or the reputation of the shared IP addresses.
If you require dedicated resources or need more control over the proxy server, a dedicated proxy would be a more suitable option. With a dedicated proxy, you have exclusive access to the resources and IP addresses associated with the proxy server, allowing for greater performance, reliability, and customization options.
