    Not realistic pricing.

    16A @ 220V = 2570 kwh, 1 kwh in CH = ~20c (EUR, with cooling), thus 2570 * 0.20 = 520EUR alone.

    1Gbit BW is even at the cheapest mix (HE, Cogent, SwissIX) at least 500EUR. 10G Burstable is at least 50% more. 1G on 10G (eg. Retn) is 1000EUR+.

    200EUR is not enough money for a full rack, nowhere in CH.

    No one does 16A on a half rack, nightmare to cool.

    Nine has 2000W (~9A, which is around usual max for many colos, eg. colozüri) and 1Gbit + full rack at 1600 CHF/month, which are ~1300-1400EUR and one of the (if not anyway the) cheapest options in CH.

    As you seem also not Swiss (else why EUR) - keep in mind that you pay VAT on any imports from EU unless you buy in Switzerland/Liechtenstein local. CH is not EU customs area.

    Switzerland is not EU. You do not pay VAT on colo/BW, you however pay import tax - it is the same as Norway in that context. Your VAT ID does not matter in any way.
