What Can Your Organization Do With EoL or EoSL CISCO CATALYST 2960S 24-PORT GBE POE SWITCH

As a Your products might be considered “end of life” or “end of support life.” This means that you might have to get a new product if you want any help from the company. This can be expensive and you might lose the value of your old product. If you keep your old product, you will not have support from the company. 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 CATALYST 2960S 24-PORT GBE POE SWITCH

When a manufacturer stops offering support for a product, it doesn’t mean the product suddenly becomes useless. The equipment 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 stretch your initial investment and keep the product working longer with TPM.
If your hardware is going to reach its End of Service Life soon and your company doesn’t have much extra money to spend on upgrades, you don’t need to worry. You can continue using your existing equipment with the help of TPM. This will give you time to prepare for the transition and get your finances in order before purchasing new equipment.
If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to OEM parts. This can be a problem because the less-than-trustworthy manufacturers may not sell quality parts. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians performing the repairs are experts in the field and may be more familiar with the 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. You can also get more work done for the same price. Plus, you can push back the cost of new equipment. An upgrade will still be necessary at some point, but TPM can help delay it.
OEMs specialize in equipment, but TPM programs can focus more on the needs of your company. They might be able to fix things in a way that creates little downtime or offer more services that can be better for you. Some TPM options, like NorthSmart, let you buy only the services you need. You can even create a hybrid model with parts of OEM and TPM support if that’s what works for your business.
