Product Overview
The Avid NEXIS Cross-Grade from E5 NL 1280TB to F5 NL with ExpertPlus Maintenance is a structured upgrade program for organizations with an existing NEXIS E5 NL (Near-Line) 1280TB system moving to the NEXIS F5 NL platform. This cross-grade provides a trade-in pathway to the F5 NL near-line storage engine, with ExpertPlus with Hardware Support coverage through the transition.
