What is the difference between Colocated and Leased or Dedicated Servers?

With colocation, you may access the datacenter (escorted by our technical staff), you use your own server, and you are billed based upon physical cabinet space usage per unit [U], i.e. a 2u case. With a Leased Server you have no physical access to the datacenter; the hardware is leased from K2 Colocation rather than the cabinet space.
