In an emergency, every minute counts: so call us in the event of massive operational disruptions of the registered device.

For more information on software maintenance and the product lifecycle of your device, please visit the Lifecycle Management website.
Central portal for efficient license management
As a partner, you know the challenge: Many devices, different license statuses, and ongoing projects make support management complex. The registration portal now takes over this task for your support products: It provides a clear overview of the support status and active R&S®NC Support / Replacement registrations of your devices (formely LANcare) in one central location. This significantly expands the previous registration option via the website.
As a partner, you can conveniently access the portal via our Partner Portal (PRM) and log in using your usual email address and a new password. You can manage both new and existing registrations yourself at any time – keeping all license data centralized and readily accessible. The registration portal also notifies you of upcoming license expirations so you can plan renewals in time.
For hosting, we rely on a German provider and a platform developed in Germany – with secure data processing and exclusively European cloud infrastructure.
Further details can be found in the information on manufacturer support for partners.
