Rows of server racks in a data center aisle — data center equipment financing

How Elevex works

Forty seconds, start to funded.

The Reality

AI demand is compressing refresh cycles while power constraints stretch buildout timelines. Capital outlays land at commissioning; revenue arrives as racks fill. Generic lenders see depreciating boxes — we see contracted capacity and finance it that way.

Buildout-Phase Structures

Progress funding through construction and commissioning, with full payments beginning as capacity comes online and contracts start billing.

Refresh-Cycle Terms

Compute ages fast; power infrastructure doesn't. Terms matched per asset class — 3-year GPU cycles to 15-year switchgear — instead of one blended guess.

Full Facility Scope

From racks and servers to generators, UPS, and cooling plant: the entire capital stack under one financing relationship.

Technician managing network systems in a modern data center — colocation and operator equipment financing
Financing for the people who run the facility — operators, colocation providers, and integrators.

Built for Operators, Not IT Buyers

Corporate IT buys equipment; operators build capacity. The difference matters to financing: your revenue arrives as racks energize and contracts bill, your assets split between fast-cycling compute and decades-long power infrastructure, and your buildout timeline is hostage to utility interconnects.

We structure to that reality — progress funding through commissioning, per-asset-class terms, and payments that step up with contracted capacity.

Equipment We Finance

New, used, dealer, or auction — application-only to $1,000,000, terms from 24 to 84 months.

Power & Cooling

UPS financing, backup generator packages, switchgear, PDUs, and CRAC/CRAH and liquid cooling plant — the long-lived infrastructure behind uptime.

Fiber optic cables connected to network switch ports — network infrastructure financing

Connectivity & Edge

Core network and fiber infrastructure, DCIM and monitoring platforms, and modular/edge data center units deployed where the workload lives.

Common Questions

Can financing match a colocation buildout schedule?
Yes — buildout-phase structures fund progressively through construction and commissioning, with payments stepping up as racks energize and colocation contracts begin billing. The financing follows the revenue curve of the facility, not a delivery date.
How do you handle GPU and AI hardware refresh cycles?
With per-asset-class terms: GPU clusters financed on 3-year technology-cycle terms with upgrade paths, while generators, UPS, and cooling carry the long terms their service life supports. One blended term for both is how operators get trapped.
Is usage-based financing available for data center capacity?
It is — usage-based and as-a-service structures tie payments to consumption or contracted capacity, which fits operators whose revenue bills the same way. Compare usage-based structures against traditional terms.
Does data center equipment qualify for Section 179?
Servers, networking, UPS, and much of the mechanical plant placed in service this year generally qualify, financed or not — though large facilities often exceed Section 179 caps and lean on bonus depreciation. Start with the Section 179 calculator and involve your tax advisor early.
