Colocation Hosting

Colocate your equipment in one of our four state-of-the-art datacentres located in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, and London.

Host your equipment in our highly secure datacentres, benefiting from significant cost savings and enhanced capabilities.

With the Network Platforms colocation hosting solution, you receive the following benefits:

Network Platforms provides Half Rack as well as Shared per u Rack options

The key difference is that with a half-rack, you can visit the datacentre unsupervised. The half-rack option provides 20U of rack space.

Multiple geographic locations

Colocation services are available at all the Teraco datacentres, including Johannesburg JB1, Durban DB1, and Cape Town CT1.

Instant cost savings

The cost of setting up a server room or datacentre is significantly reduced. There's no need to invest in fire suppression systems, connectivity, backups, generators, or security—Network Platforms takes care of all these for you.

24-hour access

Allows for 24- hour access for clients who commit to a dedicated half rack.

Shared rack space

If you only need to co-locate a few devices—such as a server, switch, or router—you only need to commit to the rack space required. Datacentre visits must be booked in advance, as a Network Platforms engineer accompanies all shared colocation customers.

Dedicated Bandwidth

We offer a range of dedicated bandwidth options including Direct Internet Access (DIA), IP Transit (IPT) and National Long Distance (NLD).

Flexibility

If you don’t require dedicated internet access and need to connect to other providers within Teraco, we offer colocation with or without bandwidth. Shared colocation is available on a month-to-month basis with a calendar months’ notice, or with 12-month agreements at different rates.

Remote hands

If you need to rack, connect, move cables, or reboot equipment, there's no need to visit the datacentre. Our remote hands service is available beyond office hours.

Optional modular add-on services


We offer additional services to complement your colocation.

Firewall as a Service:

Protect your servers with our shared enterprise high-availability firewall service.

Backup Solutions:

Need to back up your co-located servers? Our backup solutions are replicated across two different geographic regions.

Power Redundancy:

If your equipment has only one power supply, connect to our Automatic Transfer Switch to access both A and B power feeds.

Endpoint Security:

Looking for advanced endpoint security? We offer next-generation EDR and CDR platforms.

Server Replication:

Need to replicate your co-located server for added redundancy? We provide replication to various regions, enhancing geographic datacentre diversity.
