Rogers selling off data centre portfolio

There is no mention of how much this sale made the carrier yet

Rogers is selling nine of its business data centres to InfraRed Capital Partners, but the carrier will still work the sales angle to sell the server space to clients.

InfraRed is a spin-off of Sun Life, a Canadian financial services company. Rogers’ press release says this sale is part of its planned sale of real estate and non-core assets. The carrier plans to use the funds to pay down its debt.

Rogers is still retaining its corporate data centres and the ones used for the company’s IT department.

The carrier hasn’t shared how much InfraRed will pay, but the deal is expected to close near the end of 2025, so perhaps more will be shared then.

Rogers told MobileSyrup that this has nothing to do with the similarly timed shutdown of its community forums pages.
