What Can Your Organization Do With EoL or EoSL BROCADE FASTIRON CX 48-PORT 10/100/1000 SWITCH

As a If your products are EoL or EoSL, you might feel like you have to get a new product to keep getting support. But this is not always the case. You can keep your old hardware if you want, but you will have to proceed without OEM support. This means that you will have to solve any technical difficulties or breakdowns on your own, and it also means that your hardware may not work with new software and technology as they come out. has announced EOSL on all

Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for BROCADE FASTIRON CX 48-PORT 10/100/1000 SWITCH

If a manufacturer stops offering support for a product, that product is not useless. It still has most of its original value. If the product works for your company, it is convenient to keep using it. As long as there aren’t any glaring issues with the hardware or problems with its place in your company’s infrastructure, you can keep the product working longer by using TPM.
If you don’t have much extra money to spend on upgrading your hardware, you can still use your old equipment with the help of TPM. You can upgrade when you’re ready, and you can prepare for the transition by saving up money first.
If you are repairing your own hardware, you may not have access to the same parts that the manufacturer uses. This can be a problem because the replacements may not be as good as the original parts. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. The technicians performing the repairs will also be 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. They offer the same skill set as OEMs but at a fraction of the price. In addition, the work that TPM companies do may be more expansive or personalized than what your OEM offers. You also get to push back the cost of new equipment. While an upgrade will still be necessary at some point, TPM can help delay it.
OEMs specialize in their equipment, but TPM programs can focus more on the needs of your company. TPM programs might be able to do a repair in a way that creates less downtime for you or offer more services that can be better for you. Some TPM options, like NorthSmart, let you purchase only the services you need. You can even create a hybrid model with parts of OEM and TPM support if that’s what fits your business.
