Edgeium Brand Optics
Edgeium transceivers, AOCs, DACs, and jumpers are the highest quality third party parts in the industry and cost up to 95% off OEM list prices. Edgeium brand products are nearly identical to OEM products in functionality, look, weight and feel. No special command line interface (CLI) commands are required for our products to work.
Common Objections
Wondering if used network hardware is right for you? Our customers chose Edgeium because of our expertise in the free market. Lower costs, high availability, more options, quick shipping, reduced maintenance are just a few benefits our customers realize.
Software
Software inherent for a device to function is transferable. That’s the law. OEMs try to blur the line between transferable software and licensed software, but a switch doesn’t switch very well from ROMMON.
OEM Support
Buying used hardware doesn’t mean that you’ll miss out on support. As a third party maintenance provider, we offer hardware support well beyond the OEM’s end-of-life (EOL) date.
Reliability
We assure you that Edgeium’s high-quality networking equipment will stand the test of time. From 10mb to 100GB, we load test every port to meet 100% of the manufacturer’s specifications.
Committed to Quality
Each piece of equipment passes through Edgeium’s industry-leading testing and certification process. Our inbound inventory processes and procedures are so effective that we average a less than 1% failure rate. If any server, storage or network components fail for any reason, send it back under the terms of our Advanced Replacement Lifetime Warranty. This is why we warranty our products for as long as you use them — we don’t expect them to come back.
Advanced Replacement Lifetime Warranty
All Edgeium-certified hardware is backed by our advanced replacement lifetime warranty, giving you total peace of mind and protecting your purchase for as long as you own the device. If a failure does occur, simply let us know and we’ll process a replacement that same day. Put the bad unit in the box that the replacement came in and send it back. Global support options with enhanced SLAs available via CovrEDGE Maintenance

What hardware does Edgeium sell?
We provide networking equipment from all major OEMs. We specialize in providing our customers with new and used network hardware that delivers identical performance to your OEM products at a fraction of the cost.
-
Why should I consider used hardware?Pre-owned hardware is just as, if not more, reliable than brand-new hardware. Although seemingly counterintuitive, did you know that Edgeium’s previously used hardware has a return material authorization (RMA) rate almost 2.5% lower than new hardware from the OEMs? It’s absolutely true. Because there are very few moving parts, network products are considered to be sold-state devices.
Barring an electrical surge, networking equipment will rarely fail, and because they have previously been used, they aren’t exposed to manufacturing line defects that account for brand-new failure rates.
Edgeium puts every piece of hardware, both new and used, through our certification process. We refuse to sell any network hardware that hasn’t been rigorously tested for quality, security, and reliability. -
If I buy used network hardware from Edgeium, is it eligible for OEM maintenance?We have inventory that allows OEM maintenance attachment, but you’re here to reduce costs, right? Let’s discuss strategies that not only lower costs but also reduce your exposure to downtime. Self-sparing with our Advanced Replacement Lifetime Warranty eliminates any future costs associated with maintenance or hardware replacement.
Or, leverage our CovrEdge alternative to OEM maintenance that offers sparing as a service, Next Business Day, and four-hour replacement SLAs at a fraction of the cost of OEM support. -
How does buying refurbished hardware help the environment?E-waste, such as used hardware, is responsible for 2% of global carbon output — beyond that, an estimated 50 tons of e-waste is produced annually. By reusing electronics, you can help the world cut back on e-waste and its residual effects. By reusing networking equipment, you can help the world cut back on e-waste and its residual effects. By purchasing used network hardware instead of new Cisco products, you play a role in sustainability. Together, we can reduce global carbon emissions, keep electronic components out of landfills and provide the fuel that keeps the circular economy thriving.

Testimonials
"I can’t say enough about Edgeium. I was in Houston for a scheduled upgrade and unboxing what was supposed to be a turnkey solution and realized the vendor didn’t include the needed components to complete the install. I called Joe, and he literally had someone fly down with the parts that same day. I couldn’t believe it. I was able to complete the upgrade as planned. Thank you Edgeium!"
"Edgeium’s fast turnaround on quotes, quick shipping and follow-up allows me to focus on my job – not the when and how of logistics of gear. They work easily with my team and offer technical expertise when I don’t have the time to research parts and compatibility. That alone makes my job more efficient and easier."
"Very friendly, attentive, and responsive services. Amazing prices for all major name brands devices like (Dell, Cisco, Juniper, etc.). Also, I’d recommend anyone to try out Edgeium brand SFP’s. They cost a fraction of the name brand and work the same as the OEM units."
"Edgeium branded optics are a lot better quality than many others that I’ve tried in the past. Much closer to Cisco Original than my prior vendors."
