Colocation Services

As companies become more active and successful on the Internet, they often grow into the need for more bandwidth, power, security, and control to manage the business traffic. One solution for a business is to purchase expensive servers and telecommunication equipment, to build a data center. But on-site centers require costly overhead which is not utilized much of the time.

We offers a lower cost alternative. It's called "server colocation."

We constructed a state-of-the-art server colocation facility in Racine, Wisconsin. Racine is an ideal location as it is not a major metropolitan area, offering easy access via freeway and conveniently located between Chicago Illinois and Milwaukee Wisconsin.

As a CoLo customer, you manage your own dedicated, password-protected server while gaining the benefits of having it installed in our state-of-the-art facility.
