Memory parts manufactured by companies on Cisco's approved vendor list are listed as APPROVED MEMORY. These memory parts have been calibrated exclusively for use by Cisco systems and undergo extensive testing before being given APPROVED status by Cisco for use with their products. These modules are 100% compatible with their corresponding Cisco equipments.
3rd PARTY MEMORY pieces are manufactured by other companies that do not appear on Cisco's approved vendor list. 3rd party memory does not bear the Cisco label, lowering prices and making it more affordable for customers. 3rd Party memory is also 100% compatible and guaranteed to work in the Cisco device for which it is sold.
Installing 3rd party memory into Cisco chassis and components DOES NOT void your Cisco Factory Warranty or any Cisco SMARTnet you may have purchased for the equipment. You can review Cisco's stated policy on 3rd party memory and components here.
Myriad Memory stands fully behind every piece of memory sold – Approved and 3rd Party. We offer a full lifetime warranty included in the purchase price of all products. Should you encounter any problems with your purchase, simply contact one of our sales representatives for assistance.
