Hi PCLease,
The FSM726v2h2 switch is already EOL. If ever you are looking for a Fully-Managed Switch, I suggest you the M4300 series switch models. To know more about the M4300 series switches, kindly access the link below:

EoL in which aspect? The FSM726V2H2 was launced in 2006, and there were no updates for a while.
Doubt there is any (volume) market for Fast Ethernet managed switches anymore today. What management features (AFAIK there were not many on these models) do you need?
PS. At least, these are not marked EoL yet in the community system yet. ChristineT please check and update.
