Your Modular Data Centre at London 3

You can choose to let Colt place and operate your modular data centre capacity at London 3, one of our flagship facilities renowned for its operational excellence, state-of-the-art technology, resilience and security. Sited 40km (25miles) from the centre of London, the facility provides over 10,500m² of data centre space with a total power provision of 33 MVA.

London 3 is close to, but outside of London’s major ring-road - the M25 - which means that if there is an emergency lock-down across London, or the M25 has been completely closed, the data centre is still accessible. The facility delivers on all the major factors that enable you to work with confidence:
