HPE PROCURVE MAINTENANCE · TPM FOR PROCURVE & ARUBA 2920/2930

HPE ProCurve Maintenance — vendor-independent service for 2920/2930 series and older ProCurve switches

We service HPE ProCurve and early Aruba campus switches after HPE Pointnext or Aruba Care — especially EOSL 2810/2910/2920 (formerly ProCurve, later Aruba), 3500/3800 and older 5400 modular chassis. ProCurve was HPE's campus switching brand for over 20 years before being merged into the Aruba line.

Which ProCurve and Aruba 2920/2930 models we service

ProCurve line included fixed-port switches (1810/2810/2910/2920) for office floors, modular chassis (5400zl/8200zl) for datacenter/core, and PoE variants for wireless AP / VoIP cabling. After the 2015 Aruba acquisition product names changed — 2920 became Aruba 2920, 2930F extends the line.

Why TPM maintenance for ProCurve instead of HPE/Aruba contract

HPE retired the ProCurve brand in 2018 — all ProCurve switches now run under Aruba branding or are listed EOSL. HPE Pointnext / Aruba Care for older 2810/2910/3500/5400 models is often no longer renewed.

We stock Aruba 2920/2930F (with/without PoE+), older 2810/2910/2620, 3500/3800 stackable, 5400zl chassis with line cards, 8200zl, power supplies and fans, plus all common SFP/SFP+/QSFP+ transceivers.

Generations timeline & TPM coverage

Per hardware generation: vendor phase (slate) and TechCare coverage window (teal) up to ~5 years post-OEM EOSL.

EOSL status of ProCurve switches

After the 2015 Aruba acquisition and 2018 ProCurve brand retirement, many classic ProCurve models transitioned to EOSL. HPE/Aruba often no longer offers maintenance renewals for 2810/2910/3500.

FAQ on ProCurve maintenance

Which ProCurve and Aruba switches do you service?
Complete ProCurve/Aruba 2x00 line: 1810G, 2620, 2810, 2910/2910al, Aruba 2920 (ex-ProCurve), Aruba 2930F/M, 3500/3500yl, 3800 stackable, 5400zl chassis, 8200zl. All zl line cards, PoE+/standard PSUs, fans and SFP/SFP+/QSFP+ transceivers.
What does TPM cost vs. Aruba Care?
Aruba 2920-48G PoE+ with 5×9 NBD costs 350-550 EUR/year at Aruba Care, 150-250 EUR at TechCare. EOSL ProCurve 2910al or 5406zl: TPM is the only option at 200-400 EUR/year for a 5406zl.
Are PoE+/PoE++ functions still guaranteed?
Yes. PoE+ (802.3at, up to 30W) on 2920/2910 PoE+ and PoE++ (802.3bt, up to 60W) on 2930F/M are hardware features. We replace defective PoE modules and verify port voltage on service calls.
Do we still get ArubaOS-Switch / ProVision updates?
Active ArubaOS-Switch and ProVision firmware downloads require Aruba Care. Last official firmware per family is stable. CVE patches via established repositories on demand.
Can we migrate to Aruba CX during TPM?
Yes. Aruba CX (6300/6400/8320) is the successor for ProCurve and Aruba 2920/2930F. TPM bridges 12-18 months of campus switch migration.
Is 5406zl maintenance with mixed line cards possible?
Yes. We stock common zl line cards (J9536A, J9637A, J9866A). For mixed-line-card configurations we verify per-line-card spare availability before contract. Rare modules (e.g. 10G J8694A) explicitly listed in contract.
Do we lose the HPE/Aruba warranty?
No. ProCurve historically had a Lifetime Limited Warranty on hardware — that stays even after TPM, because tied to hardware. Aruba Care and HPE Pointnext are contractual services.
