Colocation FAQ's
What is 1U colocation and who is it ideal for?
1U colocation gives you one rack unit (1.75 inches) of dedicated space in a shared or private cabinet inside our ISO 27001-certified Midlands data centres. It’s perfect for small-to-medium businesses, startups, web hosting, monitoring servers, edge computing nodes, or low-power applications that don’t need a full rack. At VeloxServ you get full UK data sovereignty, enterprise-grade power, and ultra-low latency connectivity at a fraction of London prices.
What’s the difference between 1U, 2U, 3U and 4U colocation?
1U: Slim, single-unit servers – ideal for dense, low-power workloads.
2U: Twice the height, more room for drives, GPUs or better cooling.
3U: Popular for balanced performance and density.
4U: Maximum space for high-performance servers, storage arrays or entry-level GPU/AI servers.
All sizes at our Wolverhampton and Redditch facilities include the same N+N redundant power, precision cooling and carrier-neutral 100Gbps connectivity.
Is Remote / Smart hands support available?
Remote hands is a service that offer assistance with physical tasks related to maintaining and managing server hardware and equipment. These tasks are performed by our on-site technicians and can be completed remotely as directed by the customer.
How much does 1U, 2U, 3U or 4U colocation cost in the Midlands?
VeloxServ offers highly competitive pricing that is significantly cheaper than London colocation. Exact costs depend on power requirements and contract length, but our 1U–4U packages are designed to be affordable while still delivering full redundancy and UK data sovereignty. Contact us for a custom quote tailored to your exact rack unit and power needs.
What power options are available for 1U–4U servers?
You can choose from a range of customisable power feeds (single or redundant A+B) with options up to 32A per rack. Every 1U–4U colocation service includes N+N UPS systems and generator backup, giving you the reliability of enterprise infrastructure without paying London-level prices.
Can I run high-density or GPU workloads in 3U or 4U colocation?
Yes. Our Midlands data centres are built for higher power density. 3U and especially 4U colocation slots are excellent for GPU servers, AI inference, or small high-density clusters. Precision cooling and advanced airflow management keep your equipment running cool and efficient 24/7.
Why choose Midlands 1U–4U colocation instead of London?
You get the same (or better) performance and security - ISO 27001 certification, 24/7 access, remote hands, and true UK data sovereignty - but with far lower costs and strategic access to the M5, M6, M42 and M54 motorways. Our Wolverhampton and Redditch locations also deliver excellent low-latency connectivity across the UK, making them ideal for regional edge colocation workloads.
How quickly can my 1U–4U server be live in Wolverhampton or Redditch?
Most 1U–4U colocation orders are installed and online within 5–10 business days. We also offer rapid deployment options and expert remote hands support so you can have your servers racked, cabled, powered and connected with minimal downtime.
Do you provide remote hands and 24/7 support for small colocation deployments?
Yes. All 1U–4U customers receive full 24/7 secure access to our facilities plus professional remote hands and KVM-over-IP support. Our on-site engineers can reboot servers, swap drives, install hardware or perform any maintenance you need.
