What changes at EOSL
The UCS 6248UP Fabric Interconnect keeps working. Cisco just stops answering.
End of service life is the date Cisco stops selling support contracts for the UCS 6248UP Fabric Interconnect. It is a commercial decision, not a technical one. The server still runs, its failure modes are well documented, and spares are available on the secondary market.
We keep UCS 6248UP Fabric Interconnect spares in stock and support the platform for 3 to 5+ years past May 31, 2024 with in-house L3+ engineers 24/7/365, a 4-hour on-site SLA, and month-to-month terms. Most customers use that window to refresh on their own schedule instead of Cisco's.
