HPE 9012 5-Year Foundation Care Hardware Service

Keep an Aruba 9012 gateway platform covered by HPE Foundation Care hardware service for a five-year period. This service entitlement applies to the supported Aruba 9012 hardware and carries the SBD service characteristic stated for this offering. It addresses the hardware support requirement for the covered platform rather than adding gateway hardware or a software license. HPE Foundation Care is HPE's support-service family for covered infrastructure products. For an Aruba 9012 deployment, the service provides a named coverage term and hardware-focused support designation that can be associated with the installed platform. The five-year term suits environments expected to retain the same gateway hardware through a longer operating cycle. HQ6G0E specifically combines the five-year coverage period, Foundation Care support family, SBD characteristic, and Aruba 9012 hardware compatibility. These details matter because service entitlements are platform-specific: this item is for Aruba 9012 hardware, not a general support plan for unrelated Aruba devices. Select it when the installed equipment is an Aruba 9012 and the required service designation is five-year Foundation Care hardware support with SBD.
