Hi!
If we think technically then Dedicated and Colocation are same. But, if dedicated server is equipment that belongs to a company and you rent it for your information, then colo is when you have your own server in datacenter of some company, where you rent a physical space for it, and not more - all management and repair has to be done by yourself, so it is only affordable if you live close to the dedicated server.
