Tags: Networking

I have specs for switches, routers, server and storage for which I need to identify the matching product on the market.

Kindly advise of any such tool to help in my product sourcing activity

It depends on the market, but if it’s for business contact a few sellers and ask them for a quotation.

Thank you

The problem with most sellers is that they don’t want to come up with quotations based on the specs alone – they’re asking for model numbers (part codes) meaning that I need to identify specific products meeting my requirements before raising the RFQ

Not something you’ll get from “sellers.”

This is something those Cisco engineers along with other companies do.

No, there is not tool that does this because it would ALWAYS BE WRONG.
