It has been well documented in the industry that lead times for kit are growing, so don’t delay in checking if your equipment is running out of warranty – if it is coming to an end then you need to start thinking about a replacement or finding spares.
The team at Blue Sky Systems recently had to help a resellers customer re-purpose an out-of-service switch to replace one that was out of warranty – a situation that would have led to 30 people unable to work!

Now is the time to order spares in order to avoid disruption if equipment fails.

General indicative lead times are as follows;

Switching – 9 months+
Wifi kit – 6 months+
Servers – 2-3months
