HPE Global Promotions are designed to help you lower upfront costs when you modernize your IT environment. Instead of paying full price for new hardware, you can tap into targeted rebates and incentives tied to specific product families and upgrade scenarios.

Examples from the current offers include:

• Networking upgrades: Rebates when you replace aging HPE Networking WLAN and switching accessories (such as power supplies, modules, and cables) with new HPE Aruba Networking CX Switches, HPE Comware Switches and Routers, HPE Aruba Networking Access Points, or HPE Networking Instant On Switches.
• Wi‑Fi refresh: A customer rebate when you refresh your wireless network with Wi‑Fi 7 using select HPE Aruba 7xx Series access points.
• Storage and HCI trade-up: Incentives when you move from existing HPE Primary Storage or competitor equipment to HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000, HPE PCBE with HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 (including Alletra dHCI), or when you upgrade older HPE SimpliVity to HPE SimpliVity Gen 11.
• Compute modernization: Promotions that support upgrading your compute infrastructure with HPE ProLiant and HPE Synergy solutions to improve productivity and efficiency.

By aligning your refresh or trade-in projects with these promotions, you can reshape your infrastructure while using rebates to offset part of the investment, instead of treating every upgrade as a full-cost replacement.

The Switch It Up Competitive Switch Trade-In Promotion is a limited-time offer that helps you refresh and recycle older networking gear while reducing the cost of new equipment.

Under this promotion, customers may be eligible to receive rebates towards eligible HPE Networking accessories when they replace aging HPE Networking WLAN and switching accessories. This can include items such as:

• Existing power supplies
• Modules
• Cables

To participate, you purchase new qualifying products to replace select HPE legacy switches, such as:

• HPE Aruba Networking CX Switches
• HPE Comware Switches and Routers
• HPE Aruba Networking Access Points
• HPE Networking Instant On Switches

The program is designed to help you reimagine your network by moving away from older infrastructure, while putting the residual value of that equipment to work in the form of rebates on new HPE networking solutions.

Several upgrade paths are currently supported by HPE promotions, allowing you to modernize while taking advantage of trade-up or rebate opportunities:

1. Wireless network refresh

• Wi‑Fi 7 upgrade: Customer rebate available when you refresh your wireless network with select HPE Aruba 7xx Series access points.

2. Networking switch and accessory upgrades

• Switch It Up trade-in: Rebates towards eligible HPE Networking accessories when replacing aging HPE Networking WLAN and switching accessories (power supplies, modules, cables).
• Legacy switch replacement: Eligibility when you purchase new HPE Aruba Networking CX Switches, HPE Comware Switches and Routers, HPE Aruba Networking Access Points, or HPE Networking Instant On Switches to replace select HPE legacy switches.

3. Storage and hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI)

• Primary storage trade-up: When you replace existing HPE Primary Storage or competitor equipment with HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 or HPE PCBE with HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000 (including Alletra dHCI based on HPE Alletra Storage), you may qualify for the trade-up program.
• HCI modernization: Customers who purchase HPE SimpliVity Gen 11 to replace older generation HPE SimpliVity are eligible to participate in the trade-up program.

4. Compute infrastructure
