CISCO SWITCHES FOR SMALL and MEDIUM BUSINESS
Introducing the next generation of Cisco Small and Medium Business Switches. Cisco is refreshing its SMB Switch portfolio. Click here to learn more.
Hello, I inherited a SGE2010P 48 port PoE switch (the dealer has since gone out of business). The client on the premises where it was installed claimed there was a power outage this weekend. When I arrived, all PoE devices were un-powered and all other connected devices had no network connectivity.
The lights and fans exhibit this behavior as soon as I power the unit. Has anyone come across this failure mode before? Sounds like its fried but I don't have much experience with Cisco.
Thanks
Hi hugh_jeffner,
As you mentioned this is an inherited device do you know if you have a smartnet contract with this device? I can help you check and get this sorted. Hope to hear from you soon!
I successfully initiated an RMA
The only thing is if I try to track the status with this tool it says I am not authorized.

I assume that is because I don't have a service contract
Thanks
hugh_jeffner.
May i ask how many Cisco gear you have that has no service contract?
Happy to Serve!

There is no smartnet for smb devices like this and this model is not made or sold anymore.
It should still have a warranty though. Possibly limited, lifetime. I can't recall right now, but I did have and SGE switch go DOA a couple years ago and called smb support and they replaced it with a comparable SG switch.
Your best bet is to call SBSC support: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/web/tsd-cisco-small-business-support-center-contacts.html
You can look at warranty info for that product here: http://www.cisco-servicefinder.com/warrantyfinder.aspx It appears to have RTF (return to factory) so if it is really broke, they should let you send it back and then they send you a replacement.
Yeah I found that site and noticed the RTF, I think I will be pursuing that route. Thanks.
I just tested trying to connect via console got nothing.
