For some use cases you don't want to navigate individual devices but hardware products. This is what the hardware products inventory is for. You can access it by selecting the "Products" tab.
There is no scope selector for hardware products, but the distribution of products across sites, for example, is shown in the hardware product profile of an individual product.
The hardware products page is most useful for lifecycle management, since product lifecycle data for selected vendors is included by default.
Hardware product profiles
In order to open the profile for a specific hardware product, double click on the respective entry in the list. This will pop up a new browser window with all the information for the selected product.
In a hardware product profile you see the following sections that can be expanded and collapsed by clicking on section headers:
Header
The product name, vendor, and version. If set, there may also be a picture, such as a product photo.
