Zyxel NXC5500 — End-of-Life & EOSL Dates
Zyxel has published end-of-life dates for the NXC5500 on its business end-of-life list. The End of Life date is taken from Zyxel's own end-of-life data, linked below. Zyxel defines End of Life as the date all support services for the hardware and its firmware cease.
Every tracked Zyxel NXC5500 SKU group is past Zyxel end of service life (last group Dec 2023). Units in production should be treated as unsupported. For past-EOSL units, weigh third-party maintenance, spares, replacement, or a documented run-to-failure. Zyxel’s named migration path: USG FLEX 700.

Options from here
The Zyxel NXC5500 is past Zyxel end of service life. These are the paths teams take from here:
Keep it in production past the OEM cutoff with an independent maintainer.
Buy spares now, while units still circulate on the secondary market.
It is unsupported today. Set a migration timeline and budget.
Low-criticality role: document the risk, harden backups, retire on your terms.
Independent and informational. EOSL.ai sells no hardware and no maintenance, and lists no paid placements. Third-party maintenance keeps unsupported gear in production past the OEM cutoff; whether it fits depends on the role the asset plays.
