Colocation in Ashburn

Rent cabinets, cages and suites in our Ashburn data centers. Bring your own hardware and we supply the space, power and connectivity. Pricing depends on the space and power you need, so our sales engineers quote each deployment.

Cabinets and cages

Start with a single cabinet or take a cage or suite for a larger footprint, sized to the hardware you are bringing.

Power sized to your hardware

Our facilities are built with redundant power. Tell us the draw per cabinet when you request a quote and we will size the deployment to it.

Cross-connects and carriers

Connect to the carriers in the building, to our cloud and dedicated servers, and to other customers through cross-connects.

Hands on site

Ask for a reboot, a reseat or a hardware swap instead of traveling to the facility. Managed services are available when you want more.

Why teams colocate in Ashburn

  • A major network hub

    Northern Virginia is where many carriers, clouds and content networks meet, so cross-connects here reach a wide set of providers.

  • Utility substation power

    The Ashburn campus draws on 70 MW of utility substation power, which leaves room for high density deployments.

  • Cloud and interconnection

    Cross-connects, cloud on-ramps and our interconnection marketplace help you build direct paths between your hardware and the platforms you use.

Ashburn colocation FAQ

Where is the Ashburn colocation space?

Three data centers sit on our Ashburn campus, on Red Rum Drive. The wider Northern Virginia market also includes a McLean facility, and sales can place you in the building that fits your plan.

Can I order high density space in Ashburn?

High density power is available, sized to your hardware. Include your per-cabinet power draw in the quote request and sales will confirm what the building can supply.

Can I order colocation online?

Not yet. Colocation is quoted by our sales engineers, so send the request form on this page with what you plan to deploy and we will reply with the options.

What should I include in a quote request?

The number of cabinets or the rack units you need, the power draw per cabinet, how you plan to connect, and when you want to go live. Rough numbers are fine, and we will refine them with you.

Can I connect colocation to cloud or dedicated servers?

Yes. Colocation, cloud VMs and dedicated servers run on one platform, so you can link them over private connections and receive a single invoice.

Can I visit the facility before I decide?

Ask your sales engineer when you submit the form and we will arrange a tour.
