PURCHASE CHECKS
1. Specify the exact switch identifier, access ports, uplinks and intended network role before selecting optics.
2. Record power supplies, fan direction and rack accessories as separately checkable items.
3. Treat software features, subscriptions and support coverage as separate from the existence of a physical port.
4. For refurbished equipment, request the port-test scope, physical condition and configuration handover checklist.
5. Product photographs should show the device, its ports and labels without an invented display-connected boot scene.
