What Can Your Organization Do With EoL or EoSL BROCADE SILKWORM 3800 16-PORT FC-2GB SWITCH

As a Not following your device’s End of Life (EOL) and End of Service Level Agreement (EOSL) dates can lead to you not having coverage when you need it. This can lead to poor performance, security vulnerabilities, software incompatibilities, and high operating costs. Paying attention to these dates and creating a plan for your EOSL and EOL equipment can help your data center continue to run smoothly, even if you find that your budget can’t cope with expensive upgrades. has announced EOSL on all

Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for BROCADE SILKWORM 3800 16-PORT FC-2GB SWITCH

If a manufacturer stops offering support for a product, that product is not immediately useless. It still has a lot of value, and if it works for your company, it is good to keep using it. As long as there are no big problems with the hardware or with how it fits into your company’s infrastructure, you can use the product for longer by using TPM.
If your company’s hardware is about to reach its End of Service Life and you don’t have much extra money to spend on upgrades, don’t worry. You can continue using your current hardware with the help of TPM. That way, you can upgrade when you’re ready and have everything planned out ahead of time. You won’t have to rush into a decision because you feel like you need new hardware.
If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to parts from the original equipment manufacturer. In this case, you might need to work with less-than-trustworthy manufacturers to get the parts you need. However, working with TPM will give you access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who perform the repairs will be experts in this field and may be more familiar with your equipment than in-house techs.
If you want to avoid paying too much for post-EoL OEM services, you can work with a TPM company. TPM companies offer similar skill sets as OEMs but at a much lower price. Plus, the scope of work may be more expansive or personalized than what is offered by your OEM. You can also push back the cost of new equipment by working with a TPM company. Although an upgrade will still be necessary at some point, using a TPM company can help delay it.
OEMs specialize in making equipment for a certain company. TPM programs help companies with their needs. They can do things like repair something quickly so there is less down time or offer more services for a better price. Some TPM programs, like NorthSmart, let you buy only the services you need. You can also choose a hybrid model that has some of the benefits of both OEM and TPM support.
