Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for BROCADE 5120 24/40-PORT FC-8GB SWITCH

When a manufacturer stops supporting a product, the equipment is not suddenly useless. It still has most of its original value and it can be convenient to keep using it if it works for your company. As long as there aren’t any glaring issues with the hardware or problems with its place in your company’s infrastructure, you can stretch your initial investment and keep the product working longer with TPM.
Maybe your hardware is going to reach its End of Service Life soon, but your company doesn’t have much extra money to spend on upgrades. You have your own business to run and you don’t want to be rushed into a decision. You can continue using your existing equipment with the help of TPM. This will let you upgrade when you’re
If you are fixing the hardware yourself, you may not have access to the original parts. This may mean that you have to get parts from a less-than-reliable manufacturer. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who will be performing the repairs are experts in this field and may be more familiar with your equipment than in-house techs.
You can save money on post-EoL OEM services by working with a TPM company. TPM companies have lower prices and the same skill set as OEMs. They can also do more work for less money. You can also push back the cost of new equipment by working with a TPM company. An upgrade will still be necessary at some point, but TPM can help delay it.
OEMs specialize in their own equipment, but TPM programs can focus on what your company needs. A good TPM program might be able to offer a repair that causes as little downtime as possible or provide more services that are better for you. Some TPM options, like NorthSmart, let you purchase only the services you need. You can even choose a hybrid model with some elements of OEM and TPM support if it works better for your business.
