What Can Your Organization Do With EoL or EoSL BROCADE VDX 6940 144S 64/96-PORT 10GBE R/F SWITCH

As a Your products might be considered End-of-Life (EoL) or End-of-Support Life (EoSL). This means you might have to get a new product if you want to keep getting support from the company. This can be expensive and also means losing the value of your old hardware. If you keep your old equipment, you won’t be able to get help from the company anymore. But how will you deal with technical difficulties or breakdowns? And how can you be confident that your hardware will work properly as new software, technology and security concerns arise? has announced EOSL on all

Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for BROCADE VDX 6940 144S 64/96-PORT 10GBE R/F SWITCH

Even if a manufacturer stops supporting a product, the product is still valuable. It still has most of its original value. If the product works for your company, it is good to keep using it. As long as there are no problems with the hardware or how it fits into your company’s infrastructure, you can keep using the product for a longer time by using TPM.
If you don’t want to upgrade your hardware right now, that’s okay. You can use TPM to help you extend the life of your current hardware. You can wait until you’re ready and have the money saved up before buying new equipment. That way, you won’t be rushed into a decision and can take your time to find the best option for your business.
If you are repairing your own hardware, you may not have access to the same parts that the manufacturer uses. In this case, you may need to find less-than-trustworthy manufacturers in order 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 performing 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 high prices for post-EoL OEM services, you can work with a TPM company. TPM companies have lower prices and offer a similar skill set. They can get the job done without charging a premium.
OEMs specialize in their equipment, but TPM programs can focus on the needs of your company. TPM programs might be able to do a repair that causes as little downtime as possible or offer more services that can save you money. Some TPM programs, like NorthSmart, let you buy only the services you need. You can also create a hybrid model with some elements of OEM and TPM support if that’s what is best for your business.
