What Can Your Organization Do With EoL or EoSL CISCO 14-PORT FC-2GB 2-PORT ISCSI SAN SWITCH (MDS 9216I)

As a If your products are considered End-of-Life or End-of-Support, it might seem like you have to get a new product to keep getting support. This can be expensive and you might lose the value of your old hardware. If you keep your equipment, you will have to proceed without help from the original manufacturer. 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 CISCO 14-PORT FC-2GB 2-PORT ISCSI SAN SWITCH (MDS 9216I)

When a manufacturer stops offering support for a product, it doesn’t mean the product becomes useless. The product still has a lot of its value. If the product works for your company, it is good to keep using it. You can use TPM to help you keep the product working longer without any problems.
If you don’t have a lot of money to spend on new hardware, you can still use your old hardware with the help of TPM. You can upgrade when you’re ready and have everything prepared before making the purchase. This will help you stay organized and avoid any rushed decisions.
If you are repairing your own hardware, you may not have access to the original manufacturer’s parts. This can be a problem, because the replacement parts may not be trustworthy. However, if you work with TPM, you will have 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.
You can save money on post-EoL OEM services by working with a TPM company. They offer similar services for lower prices. You may also get more services with TPM than you would from your OEM. And you can push back the cost of new equipment by working with TPM. Although you will still need to upgrade at some point, TPM can help delay that.
TPM programs can help your business in different ways than OEMs. TPMs might be able to do repairs in a way that keeps your downtime to a minimum or offer more services that can save you money. Some TPMs, like NorthSmart, let you buy only the services you need. You can also choose a hybrid model that combines elements of both OEM and TPM support.
