Cisco CON-OS-C48S SMARTnet Onsite 8x5xNBD Support | MDS 9148S — CON-OS-C48S

Protect storage fabric availability with Cisco SMARTnet Onsite support for the MDS 9148S 16G FC Switch. This service is built for teams that need a defined response path when switch issues affect SAN connectivity, host access, or replication workflows. With 8x5 coverage and next-business-day onsite parts and labor, it gives operations teams a practical way to restore service without waiting on ad hoc logistics. For Fibre Channel environments, response time matters. This plan pairs replacement support with onsite delivery, helping reduce the burden on internal staff and keeping remediation aligned to a predictable service model. It is well suited to data centers where storage switching underpins virtualization clusters, backup windows, and application availability. The value is in the structure: business-hours coverage, next-business-day response, and parts-and-labor support from Cisco. That combination helps justify the service cost by reducing uncertainty and shortening the path back to normal operations when the fabric needs attention.
