Raxio ET1, opened in 2023, is described by its developer as Ethiopia's first carrier-neutral Tier III data center, located on the outskirts of Addis Ababa. Raxio Group — a pan-African data center developer backed by investors including IFC, Roha Group and Meridiam — publishes technical specifications showing an 800-rack, 2,000 m² white-space facility with 3 MW of IT power capacity, cooled by indirect adiabatic systems with N+1 resilience across power and cooling. The Uptime Institute's award registry lists the facility (as "Raxio ET1," client Raxio Data Centre PLC) with both a Tier III Certification of Design Documents and a Tier III Certification of Constructed Facility, making it one of the few fully constructed-and-certified Tier III sites in the country alongside newer entrants such as Wingu Africa. Raxio also operates data centers in six other African countries — Angola, Côte d'Ivoire, DR Congo, Mozambique, Tanzania and Uganda — each built to a broadly similar specification.
