100% Uptime and Proven Reliability
Since its launch in October 2013, the data center has delivered uninterrupted service, maintaining 100% uptime with zero unplanned outages. This is achieved through robust infrastructure and a relentless focus on operational excellence.
Unmatched Carrier-Neutral Connectivity
As Africa’s leading carrier-neutral facility, it offers direct access to over 40 local carriers and all five major undersea cable systems—ACE, GLO1, MainOne, SAT-3, and WACS—ensuring rich connectivity and high network redundancy.
Tier III Certified Power Architecture
Featuring a fully redundant N+N power infrastructure, the facility is the first and only carrier-neutral colocation provider in Sub-Saharan Africa to achieve Uptime Institute’s Tier III Certification of Constructed Facility (TCCF). This ensures maximum resilience and availability for mission-critical workloads.
Strategic and Secure Location
The data center is situated 30 meters above sea level in a secure private estate within an industrial zone that’s well-served by utilities and network infrastructure. Its elevation helps mitigate flood risks, enhancing site resilience.
Sustainable, Efficient Operations
Rack Centre is committed to energy efficiency and environmental responsibility, targeting industry-leading Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE). It actively supports key UN Sustainable Development Goals, including Clean Energy, Climate Action, and Innovation in Infrastructure.
Purpose-Built on a 22,000 m² Site
Spanning 240,000 ft², the facility is designed to support scalable colocation needs, offering both physical security and environmental protection in a dedicated data center environment.
