With some of the most sophisticated security of any data center in Europe, the NetActuate Manchester data center boasts over 70,000 sq. ft of space and is known as Manchester’s most resilient colocation facility. As well as being the only data center in the UK to offer 2(N+N) UPS redundancy and an on-site BS5979 control center, it hosts industry-standard environmental monitoring, fire detection and suppression systems to avert environmental risks to hardware, and it has a myriad of certifications (such as ISO2700).
Customers in this location can also benefit from direct access to LINX (the London Internet Exchange) Manchester (as well as the NetActuate Global Network), which has over 130 connected networks, a mix of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and large content networks. Traffic regularly exceeds 170Gbps and in September last year, the exchange hit a new maximum traffic peak of 255Gbps, making LINX Manchester one of the busier exchanges in Europe.
NetActuate maintains a robust footprint in this critical market with 10 data centers across the UK, Spain, France, Germany, Poland, Hungary, and Romania.
Manchester is a major digital hub in northern England, with strong fiber infrastructure and growing enterprise demand. It provides excellent regional connectivity and serves as a strategic alternative to London for cost-effective, resilient deployments.
Manchester has a cool, temperate climate and is not prone to extreme weather events. Data centers are designed with robust power and cooling systems to ensure high availability.
