Cisco Enhanced Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty
Cisco Catalyst 2960-C and 3560-C Series Switches come with an enhanced limited lifetime hardware warranty
(E-LLW) that includes 90 days of Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) support and next-business-day
hardware replacement free of change. (See Table 7.)
Your formal warranty statement, including the warranty applicable to Cisco software, appears in the Cisco
information packet that accompanies your Cisco product. We encourage you to review carefully the warranty
statement shipped with your specific product before use. Cisco reserves the right to refund the purchase price as
its exclusive warranty remedy. For additional information on warranty terms, visit
http://www.cisco.com/go/warranty.
Adding a Cisco technical services contract to your device coverage provides access to the Cisco TAC beyond the
90-day period allowed by the E-LLW. It also can provide a variety of hardware replacement options to meet critical
business needs, as well as updates for licensed premium Cisco IOS Software, and registered access to the
extensive Cisco.com knowledge base and support tools.
