The "A Catalyst for Change" trade-in promotion is the first HP Networking program to deliver upfront savings with an additional 20 percent off the list price on HP A-Series and E-Series switches. The order must be accompanied with a trade-in of eligible Cisco Catalyst 2960/S Series, 3560/E Series/X Series, 3750/E Series/X Series, 4500 E Series, 4900 Series or 6500 Series, as well as Cisco Nexus 5000 Series or 7000 Series switches.
"There is no better time for a promotion like this for my customers," said Marc Sarazin, executive vice president of Sales and Marketing at AdvizeX, an HP partner based in Independence, Ohio. "Not only is a huge volume of Cisco gear reaching end of life, we saw a lot of customers put off scheduled network upgrades when the economy slowed down, so there's pent up demand there, too. This promotion is a great way to help customers migrate to HP now, reducing their network complexity and headaches, while lowering their costs."
