Racks and Co-location Rack Space

Co-location

Our primary data centre is the recently completed AHF (Aspen House Fleet) data centre, just 16 miles from the M25, so near London but not too near. Your rack space at Datanet is housed in a 47U high, 700mm wide and 1000mm deep rack complete with a pair of diverse 100Mb connections to the Internet and available with either 16A (~4kW), 20A (~5kW) or 24A (6kW) of diversely fed power. We have a very high rack to power ratio here at our AHF data centre, so, unlike other data centres, we supply power to your rack over a pair of diverse 32A (8kW) feeds. Our on-site engineers and facilities manager will help you prepare your new 47U rack and we have plenty of parking and loading and delivery facilities here on-site.

We offer your business bespoke and scaleable server hosting solutions, you can start with 1U or multiple U's and when you are ready scale up to a self contained 1/3 of a rack and, in the fullness of time, when business demands it, take your own full 47U rack providing the reassurance and security so vital in today's business environment.  Hosting facilities are available at our own datacentre, AHF (Aspen House Fleet), or in one of our three datacentre facilities in and around London.  For further information, please see the specification of the Aspen House Data Centre.

Storing your vital business data in a Tier3+ secure and resilient location, as opposed to locating it in offices or warehouses, ensures the safety of both the information and the equipment.
