How does colocation work, and what does it cost?

Colocation is the setup of your chassis server(s) in our racks, based in Manchester. We offer standard, three different types of Colocation; 1u, 2u and 4u. We are able to provide a quotation of multiple/different sized chassis to meet your requirements.

You are required to send your server to our Data Centre labelled with a reference code we give you, upon arrival via courier our engineers will place, power and start up your server(s) in our rack. We will then adjust your bill to start from the date of installation.

Upon request of termination of contract, you are required to give 30 days notification for all Colocation, Dedicated Servers, and Rack Services from 5wire. You will also then be required to pay for a courier to collect your server from our data centre. Collection must be made within 7 days of rack removal.
