Cage Colocation

Group multiple racks within your own physical perimeter.

A cage provides a private enclosure shaped around the deployment. When layout, access and growth matter, compare it with individual racks.

It does not replace network design, continuity, logical security or equipment operations.

Let’s talk

Racks and optical fibre in a data centre setting.

How it works

Group infrastructure in private space with a tailored physical layout.

Private enclosure

Racks and power

Agreed physical layout

Interconnection point

The enclosure is not the rack

The cage defines private space for racks, aisles and cabling. Agree layout, access control, rack ownership and site power/cooling.

Network connectivity still requires defined handovers and cross-connects. Customer systems management remains a separate responsibility.

Density and growth

Interconnection point

Grow without breaking the design

Review density, load distribution, airflow and power capacity before adding equipment. Free floor space does not prove usable power is available.

Reserve cabling paths and maintenance space. Orderly growth avoids physical dependencies that become difficult to change once service is critical.

Protect power, network and access

Separate power, network, equipment and physical-access risks. Alternatives should cover intended failure domains inside and outside the enclosure.

Agree notifications, authorised people and intervention procedures. Whole-site contingencies require assessing a second location and the data plan.

Illustrative case: from situation to decision

Situation: A multi-rack deployment needs controlled access and space for growth.
Option: Compare a private enclosure with individual cabinets by density and operations.
Check: Review layout, power, cooling and entry procedures before installing equipment.

A cage is an equipment enclosure; physical privacy does not equal complete high availability or logical security.

Decisions for your project

Physical design: Racks, aisles, access, cabling and expansion.
Density: Power, cooling and capacity during contingencies.
Responsibilities: Equipment ownership, intervention, maintenance and external connections.

From design to operation

Define layout and demand, validate the site and coordinate installation, interconnection and operational acceptance.
