What Can Your Organization Do With EoL or EoSL IBM 10-PORT FC-4GB FABRIC SWITCH BLADE (CISCO)

As a If you don’t pay attention to your device’s End of Life (EOL) and End of Service Life (EOSL) dates, you might not have coverage when you need it. This can lead to poor performance, security vulnerabilities, software incompatibilities, and high operating costs. Planning 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 IBM 10-PORT FC-4GB FABRIC SWITCH BLADE (CISCO)

Even if a manufacturer stops supporting a product, it doesn’t mean the product is suddenly useless. Most of the original value still exists, and if the product still works for your company, it can be convenient to keep using it. As long as there aren’t any glaring issues with the hardware and it still fits into your company’s infrastructure, you can stretch your initial investment by using TPM.
If your hardware is about to reach its end of service life and your company doesn’t have a lot of extra money to spend on upgrades, you don’t need to feel rushed into making a decision. You can continue using your existing equipment with the help of TPM and upgrade when you’re ready. 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 own hardware, you may not have access to OEM parts. This can be a problem because these parts are usually of better quality than aftermarket parts. However, you can work with TPM to get the trusted parts you need. Plus, the technicians who will be performing the repairs are experts in this field and may be more familiar with your equipment than in-house techs.
If you want to save money on post-EoL OEM services, you should work with a TPM company. TPM companies have lower prices and the same skill set as OEMs. You can also get more work done for less money, and 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 making equipment, but TPM programs can focus on what your company needs. They might be able to do a repair so that there is little downtime or offer more services that can save you money. Some TPM options, like NorthSmart, let you buy only the services you need. You can even create a hybrid model with some of the features of OEM and TPM support if that’s what works for your business.
