Rack and Stack in Dublin
Equinix DB2 - Dublin, Kilcarbery stands on Kilcarbery Business Park in Dublin. When new servers, switches or storage arrive for a Dublin deployment, the work that remains is physical: lifting the hardware into the rack, mounting it on rails, running the cabling and bringing it up for the first time. Reboot Monkey takes that work on as a third-party datacenter services operator, so your own staff do not have to be on site for the installation. The building itself belongs to someone else. Reboot Monkey is not a hosting company and does not own datacenters. It sells rack space, IP transit, leased IP addresses, network connectivity and data-centre hardware, together with the services that deliver, install and support them. A request starts with the hardware list and the target rack. Reboot Monkey confirms the scope, schedules an engineer and names a second, briefed engineer as backup for your site. On the day, the engineer works through the installation in order and reports back when the equipment is powered on and checked.

Our Rack and Stack Services
Rack and stack is defined as installing, mounting and cabling new hardware. In practice the scope covers cabling, labelling and power-on checks. Each element is done by a Reboot Monkey engineer in your rack, and the quote reflects the size of the job. Prices are quoted on request and depend on the customer and the size of the job.
The work runs in a fixed sequence so that the result can be checked by your own team afterwards:
- Mounting servers, switches and other equipment in the allocated rack positions.
- Cabling the equipment, with every cable labelled so it can be traced later.
- Power-on checks once the hardware is installed, to confirm it starts as expected.
- Installing and patching the network cabling in your rack for the cross connects and carrier circuits that have been ordered.
Why Reboot Monkey
Network is part of the same engagement as the installation. Reboot Monkey orders the cross connects and carrier circuits from the facility operator and from the carriers present in the facility, and its engineers install and patch the cabling in your rack. That keeps the ordering of circuits and the physical connection under one party, which matters when a new rack has to be live on a fixed date. Where a link needs inspection, a fibre inspection scope and cleaning kit are available on request.
Coverage is the other practical point for a company with equipment in more than one country. As of 2026, Reboot Monkey's field engineers work in 190 countries and more than 400 locations, so a Dublin installation can sit inside the same arrangement as work elsewhere.
Rack and stack is one of several services that can follow from each other. Once hardware is installed, remote hands, smart hands and hardware monitoring cover its day-to-day care, and server migration and data center decommissioning cover its later moves and retirement.
