Cisco SP-AR2-IE3008AT 8x5x4 Rugged Modular Hardware Support

Maintain covered Cisco Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series Modular equipment with a hardware support service aligned to an 8x5x4 coverage level. This service applies to industrial networking environments where the installed platform is part of plant-floor, transportation, utility, or other ruggedized infrastructure. It is a service entitlement for the supported hardware rather than a physical Ethernet switch, expansion module, power supply, or mounting accessory. SP-AR2-IE3008AT is associated with the Cisco Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series Modular platform. That platform-specific association matters when matching support coverage to installed industrial network hardware, because the service is intended for the IE3300 rugged modular family rather than general-purpose office networking equipment. The 8x5x4 designation identifies the applicable service schedule and four-hour service level. Use this service where an existing Catalyst IE3300 Rugged Series Modular deployment requires hardware support coverage under an 8-hour-per-day, 5-day-per-week schedule. It suits environments that retain rugged modular switching infrastructure in service and need support aligned with the covered platform. Review the installed equipment designation and the required service schedule before associating the entitlement with a deployment.
