Colocation
One of the UK’s largest colocation providers, offering data
centre space in over 100 locations
Managing a data centre in-house is a complex and resource intensive task. That may not be a challenge you want to take responsibility for, when delivering effective and responsive service is what really matters to you.
5i offers data centre space in over 100 locations across the UK, including in London Docklands and the City, Croydon, Maidenhead, Milton Keynes, Enfield, Manchester and Bournemouth. Our data centres are connected to our MPLS private network, ensuring high speed connectivity to a secure and reliable colocation service.
Data centres are a minimum of Tier 2, with Tier 3 and 4 locations also available. This means you can rely on resilient connectivity, power, air conditioning and fire suppression systems, fundamental for your critical IT infrastructure. Within these facilities, we offer a wide range of space options, from quarter, half and full racks, through to private cages, suites and even entire data centre halls. Our facilities also offer flexible power arrangements, with fixed Amp or Kilowatts contracts available, plus the ability to consume above your commitment when required.
If required, 5i can provide you with a range of data centre equipment, including servers, switches, routers and firewalls that can be deployed in any of our data centre locations. We are also able to build, configure and maintain these devices as part of a fully maintained and outsourced managed service.
We can deliver simple deployments, through to complex multi-site configurations, all with a single point of contact for colocation, connectivity and all other related services. With vast experience of data centre installations and migrations, combined to our flexible commercial terms, we are the obvious choice for your project.
