I don't know if I fully understand why a vendor EOL's a piece of equipment

good use for it for the foreseeable future.


It just means the vendor is done with it and wants to cease all efforts supporting/maintaining it. They'd rather you buy new stuff. The maintenance phase is not sexy and doesn't lead to increasing profit or shareholder value (for public companies).
