Hardware Legacy Products - Transition and Support

Support for hardware legacy products and help transitioning to current products.

Hardware Transition and Support


As technology evolves over time, PEmicro occasionally retires hardware and software products and classifies them as Legacy items. When this happens there will almost always be a newer product available as a replacement part, accompanied by a substantial grace period that gives customers time to plan and adapt as necessary. PEmicro tries to make the transition to newer products as painless as possible, so our new products are often drop-in replacements with few additional updates required.  

Legacy hardware products are no longer sold or actively supported by PEmicro, so when an update becomes necessary then a transition to the replacement part would be required. 

This page is an overview that allows users to quickly find their Legacy hardware item and:

  1. Download support materials
  2. Determine which product or products function as a replacement part, when it's time to update
  3. Read about any special transition support that applies to their specific product, including trade-in programs 

Please click on the tab that matches your legacy product category to locate your product and view transition and support information.
