When the Brocade 6505 end of support date hits, it’s critical to stay on top of your equipment servicing to avoid costly downtime. The Brocade 6505 EOSL doesn’t mean you’re forced to undergo an equipment upgrade from your OEM – other Brocade support options exist.
If you’re in search of quality IT network maintenance, turning to 3rd party maintenance companies can be a far less expensive option than equipment overhauls or replacements. Continue browsing the list of Brocade EOSL dates below, or contact a Park Place Technologies rep for a quote today.
