SAUpload’s data centre is ideally situated in Westville, South Africa.

​

We are connected to all major backbones in South Africa. In addition to local connectivity, SAUpload also connects to all major fibre routes running through Africa, including SAT3/SAFE, Seacom and WACS.

​

A redundant UPS system and A/B power feeds to each cabinet in the data centre, ensuring maximum protection against power issues.

​

A generator and standby facility has been implemented for added protection against load shedding.

​

A redundant cooling system ensures that even if maintenance is required the data centre will function at optimal temperature. The cooling system is connected to our redundant power feed meaning that even if there is an outage the data centre will run at it’s optimal temperature.

​

A unique low pressure ventilation system ensures that the data centre is always dust free.
