Scope

What we buy

Network hardware from offices, campuses, server rooms and data centers, whether recently replaced, faulty or long written off.

We buy networking equipment from businesses and individual sellers in all seven emirates. See our service areas.

  • Switches

    Core, distribution, access and PoE switches, from single units to full stacks.

  • Routers

    Branch, edge and enterprise routers.

  • Firewalls and security appliances

    Hardware firewalls and network security appliances.

Situations

When businesses sell networking equipment

The situations that usually put this equipment on a sale list. If yours is not here, the process is the same.

  • Faster switching

    An upgrade to higher-speed switching replaces the existing access or core switches.

  • Security appliance replacement

    Firewalls are replaced at the end of their support period or after a design change.

  • Wireless or edge refresh

    A new wireless rollout replaces the PoE switches that powered the old one.

  • Office relocation or closure

    Network racks are cleared when a floor or a whole office closes.

  • Data-center network redesign

    A new network architecture leaves the previous generation of hardware behind.

  • Old hardware and unused spares

    Switches and firewalls removed in earlier upgrades, or spares never deployed, kept in storage as scrap.

Valuation

What affects the valuation

We value from the details you send. These are the factors that move the figure for this category. No two lots are the same, so we do not publish prices.

Model and series
The product line and model number are the starting point.
Ports and speed
Port count and port speed, including uplink ports.
PoE
Whether the switch can power devices over Ethernet.
Modules and transceivers
Any installed modules and optical transceivers included in the lot.
Power supplies
Redundant power supplies fitted or included.
Lifecycle status
Where the model sits in its end-of-sale and end-of-support timeline.
Quantity and condition
How many units of each model, and their physical condition.
Software licenses
Many software licenses and support subscriptions are tied to the original owner and may not transfer with the hardware.

Data-bearing devices

Network devices store their configurations, which can include credentials, VPN settings and details of your network. Reset them to factory defaults under your internal policy before handing the equipment over.

Networking Equipment: common questions

Do you buy faulty or end-of-support network equipment?

Yes. Faulty units and models past their vendor's end-of-support date are part of what we buy, alongside current hardware. List them on their own lines with the fault, if known, because support status and condition both shape the valuation.

Should we factory-reset switches and firewalls before selling them?

Yes. Reset them under your internal security policy before handover, so stored configurations, credentials and VPN settings are removed, and note on your list whether configurations have been reset.

Do software licenses and support contracts transfer with the hardware?

Often they don't. Many vendors tie feature licenses and support entitlements to the original owner, so don't assume they will carry over to a buyer. List the hardware, modules and transceivers, and note any license details separately.

Equipment that often leaves the business at the same time.

  • Servers

    Rack, tower and blade servers

  • Storage Equipment

    Arrays, NAS appliances and disk shelves

  • Data Centers

    Refresh, consolidation and migration projects

  • Corporate Offices

    Office refreshes, moves and closures
