IO is the leader in high-density colocation and works with the world's largest media and content distributors.

Data centers built in the telecom boom of the late 1990s are not equipped to handle today's high-density colocation requirements. Many of these data centers were built to support 30-50 watts per square foot. Today's enterprises are stacking up to 32kW of equipment in a single rack, which would equate to approximately 2,500 watts per square foot - a fifty-fold increase in density. The data center service infrastructure must be engineered with the appropriate electrical and mechanical systems in order to support these densities or the data center is at risk of suffering downtime.

High-Density Colocation Rack Specifications
IO's high-density colocation racks measure 8'(h) x 3'(w) x 4'(d). Each rack can accommodate up to 45U and can support up to 32 kW. The ThermoCabinet® power strips come in 8 kW increments and have 7 diverse power receptacles to handle almost any manufacturer's power cords.
