Cisco Third-Party Support

With Extended Technical Solutions, you can extend the life of your Cisco servers, switches, and network hardware well beyond OEM warranty or end-of-service life. Cisco third-party maintenance gives your organization reliable coverage, faster response times, and predictable costs—without the pressure of expensive OEM renewals or forced upgrades. Here’s how:

We Add Experts to Your Team

At Extended Technical Solutions, we understand that uptime and network stability are mission-critical. Our Level 3 engineers specialize in Cisco UCS, Catalyst, Nexus, and MDS hardware—providing deep expertise across compute, switching, and SAN environments. With direct access to our certified professionals, you gain an extension of your internal IT team that delivers real results: fast diagnostics, parts readiness, and service continuity across your Cisco infrastructure.

Focus on Your Priorities

OEM support renewals can strain both budgets and workflows. Two common issues we help enterprises eliminate:

  • Wasted Time: OEM escalation processes can delay repairs and prolong outages—especially for EOSL or older models.

  • Resource Misallocation: Cisco end-of-life notices often push organizations toward unnecessary hardware refreshes, consuming capital budgets that could be spent on modernization or cloud initiatives.

With ETS, your Cisco environment stays protected and fully supported with transparent SLAs, clear escalation paths, and proactive parts stocking—so your team can focus on strategic priorities, not hardware maintenance.

Unbiased Recommendations

Relying solely on OEM support introduces a constant cycle of refresh recommendations. When a UCS chassis or Catalyst switch experiences an issue, the default response is often “replace” rather than “repair.”

ETS is independent and vendor-neutral, focused exclusively on maintaining uptime and extending hardware value. Our engineers craft customized support plans with clear SLA commitments, firmware strategies, and spare-part logistics—free from OEM sales agendas or upsell pressure.

Empower your team with expert Cisco support that enhances stability, reduces costs, and extends the useful life of your infrastructure.
