What Can Your Organization Do With EoL or EoSL CISCO WS-C6500 SWITCH FABRIC MODULE

As a If your hardware is considered End-of-Life (EoL) or End-of-Service Life (EoSL), it can be tough to know what to do. It might seem like you have to buy new hardware in order to keep getting support, but this can be expensive and you might lose the value of your old equipment. If you keep your old hardware, you will have to go without help from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). 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 WS-C6500 SWITCH FABRIC MODULE

Even if a manufacturer stops supporting a product, the equipment is not useless. It still has a lot 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 big problems with the hardware or with how it fits into your company’s infrastructure, you can use it for longer by using TPM.
If your company doesn’t have a lot of extra money to spend on upgrading your hardware, you don’t need to feel rushed into a decision. You can use TPM to help you continue using your existing equipment. When you’re ready, you can upgrade slowly by preparing for the transition and getting your finances in order.
If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have access to the same parts that the manufacturer uses. This can be a problem because these parts may not be as reliable. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that are guaranteed to work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who will be repairing your equipment are experts in their field and may be more familiar with it than in-house technicians.
If you want to avoid high prices for post-EoL OEM services, you can work with a TPM company. TPM companies offer similar services but at a much lower cost. In addition, the scope of work offered by TPM companies may be more personalized than what your OEM offers. You can also push back the cost of new equipment by working with a TPM company. While an upgrade will still be necessary at some point, using a TPM company can help delay it.
TPM programs can offer you different services that focus on the needs of your company. They might be able to do a repair in a way that creates less downtime for your company or offer more services that can help you. Some TPM options, like NorthSmart, let you purchase only the services you need. You can also create a hybrid model with some aspects of an OEM and TPM support if it fits your business better.
