HPE Aruba 8100 24-Port 1-Year Foundation Care CDMR Service

Keep an Aruba 8100 24-port switch under a named one-year Aruba Foundation Care service term. This service applies to the specified 24-port member of the Aruba 8100 switching family and carries the CDMR designation, short for Comprehensive Defective Material Retention. It is a service entitlement rather than network hardware, so it does not add switch ports, optics, power supplies, or switching capacity. Foundation Care is Aruba's support-service framework for covered infrastructure. H83P4E associates that framework with the Aruba 8100 24-port platform for one year. The CDMR designation differentiates this service configuration from Foundation Care variants without comprehensive defective-material retention. That distinction matters where retained defective material is part of the required service arrangement. Use this service where the installed equipment is specifically an Aruba 8100 24-port switch and a one-year Foundation Care term with CDMR is required. Confirm the supported switch configuration and the required service level before assignment, particularly where the deployment contains multiple Aruba 8100 port counts or separately covered hardware. The service is tied to the supported platform named in its designation, not a substitute for coverage on unrelated network devices.
