Technical Inventory Hardware Extraction Protocol

Extract ALL relevant hardware items from the image with precise, standardized formatting.

Filtering Rules

INCLUDE: Physical hardware, modules, cables, servers, storage, transceivers
EXCLUDE: Generic mounting hardware (screws, brackets, rails), paper licenses, empty packaging
Multi-item labels: Treat each SKU/variant as a separate item (e.g., "5m cable" and "7m cable" = 2 items)

Item Field Format (CRITICAL)

Format: <size_or_length> <type> <vendor> <connector> <part_number>

Component Rules:

<size_or_length>:
- STORAGE CAPACITY - HUMAN READABLE: Convert to largest unit (TB/MB).
  - Examples: "1600GB" → "1.6TB", "256GB" → "256GB", "512MB" → "512MB"
  - Rule: If ≥1000GB, use TB. If ≥1000MB, use GB. Otherwise use MB.
- CABLE/WIRE LENGTH: Meters only. Examples: "5m", "10m", "50m"
- RAM DIMM: Capacity in GB. Examples: "128GB", "32GB", "8GB"
- SFP/TRANSCEIVER SPEED: Speed in G/Mbps. Examples: "10G", "1G", "40G", "100G"
<type>: Asset class.
- CABLES:
  - Use "Fiber" for all optical fiber cables.
  - Use "Patchcord" for all copper UTP/RJ45 cables.
  - Others: SATA, SAS, Power, USB, etc.
- COMPONENTS: DDR3/DDR4/DDR5, NVMe, SSD, HDD, SFP/Transceiver, DIMM, etc.
  - PRECEDENCE: If an item is both "SSD" and "NVMe", use NVMe as the type and category.
<vendor>: Manufacturer (HP, HPE, Dell, Samsung, Cisco, Hynix, Intel, Broadcom)
<connector>: Physical interface (RJ45, LC-LC, MPO, U.3, SATA, SAS, ST, SC). Omit if N/A.
<part_number>: Part number ONLY if visible. Omit serial numbers.

Item Examples (WITH HUMAN-READABLE SIZES):

1.6TB NVMe HPE U.3 P66093-002 (not 1600GB)
256GB SSD Dell SATA SK-8765 (already human-readable)
5m Fiber LC-LC (optical cable)
2m Patchcord RJ45 (copper cable)
128GB DDR4 Hynix
10G SFP+ Cisco LC 10-2415-03

Size Conversion Examples:

1600GB → 1.6TB
2048GB → 2TB
512GB → 512GB (under 1TB threshold)
256MB → 256MB
1024MB → 1GB

Restrictions:

No comments in parenthesis
No measurement units in Item field (e.g., "1.6TB" not "1.6TB Storage")
No secondary vendors
No diameter/mm in Item field
ONE vendor only (primary manufacturer)

Other Fields

Type: Repeat the asset class (DDR4, SSD, NVMe, Patchcord, etc.)
Description: Technical summary, max 5 words. Examples: "High-speed fiber optic", "Enterprise Gen4 storage"
Category:
- For Spare Parts (see below): Use spare parts - <type> where <type> is the lowercase component name (e.g., spare parts - ram, spare parts - ssd, spare parts - nvme, spare parts - raid card, spare parts - cpu, spare parts - psu, spare parts - hba, spare parts - nic, spare parts - sfp).
- For Others: Use Network, Cabling, Compute, Optical, Consumable.
Connector: Interface type from Item field. Examples: "LC-LC", "RJ45", "U.3"
Size: HUMAN-READABLE capacity, length, or speed. Examples: "1.6TB", "256GB", "5m", "10G" (NOT "1600GB")
Color: Physical color if distinguishing
PartNr: Part number only. CRITICAL: NEVER include Serial Numbers (S/N, SN, Serial).
Specs: Detailed technical specifications (e.g., "1.2V, CL22", "850W 80+ Gold", "Gen4 x4", "Single-mode").
OCR: Robust matching key for OCR tolerance. Format: TYPE SIZE VENDOR CONNECTOR PARTNUMBER (UPPERCASE, no special chars).

OCR Field Rules (CRITICAL)

Generate a SHORT, clean matching key for database lookup:

Format: UPPERCASE space-separated, NO special chars, NO duplicates
Include ONLY: Type + Size + Primary Vendor + Connector + Part Number
STRICT EXCLUSIONS:
- NO serial numbers (S/N, SN, Serial)
- NO secondary vendor names
- NO extraneous labels
CONSTRAINTS:
- Each token appears ONE time only (no duplicates)
- Remove hyphens/special chars for fuzzy matching (e.g., SK-8765 -> SK8765)
USE HUMAN-READABLE SIZE: Use TB/GB/M/G from Item field.

OCR Examples:

Item: 1.6TB NVMe HPE U.3 P66093-002 → OCR: NVME 1.6TB HPE U3 P66093002
Item: 5m Fiber LC-LC → OCR: FIBER 5M LC LC
Item: 2m Patchcord RJ45 → OCR: PATCHCORD 2M RJ45
Item: 256GB SSD Samsung SAS SK-8765 → OCR: SSD 256GB SAMSUNG SAS SK8765
Item: 128GB DDR4 Hynix → OCR: DDR4 128GB HYNIX
Item: 10G SFP+ Cisco LC 10-2415-03 → OCR: SFP+ 10G CISCO LC 10241503

Spare-Parts vs Consumables Classification

CLASSIFICATION GUIDE - SPARE PARTS vs CONSUMABLES:

Spare Parts (replaceable components that plug into or interface with devices):

RAM: DDR3, DDR4, DDR5, SODIMM, DIMM → Category: spare parts - ram
Storage: NVMe, SSD, M.2, SATA HDD, SAS HDD → Category: spare parts - nvme, spare parts - ssd, or spare parts - hdd.
- Rule: Use nvme if the item is an NVMe SSD.
CPU: Processors, Intel Xeon, AMD EPYC → Category: spare parts - cpu
Power: PSU, Power Supply Modules → Category: spare parts - psu
Controllers: RAID Controllers, HBA, NIC, Network Cards → Category: spare parts - raid card or spare parts - hba or spare parts - nic
Cooling: Heatsinks, Fans (specific to models) → Category: spare parts - cooling
Mainboard: Motherboards, Riser Cards → Category: spare parts - motherboard or spare parts - riser
Optical: SFPs, Transceivers → Category: spare parts - sfp

NOT Spare Parts (consumables, generic items):

Cables: Power cables, SATA cables, USB, Ethernet, Fiber Patchcords → Category: Cabling or Consumable
Fasteners: Screws, brackets, rails → Category: Consumable
Materials: Thermal paste, pads, tapes → Category: Consumable

Decision Tree:

Does the item have a manufacturer part number (P/N)?
Is it a modular component of a larger system (Server, PC, Switch)?
Does it have technical specs (Speed, Capacity, Voltage)? If YES to 2+ questions: Mark as spare parts - <type> If item is a cable: Mark as Cabling If item is a generic hardware: Mark as Consumable Otherwise: Mark as uncertain for review.

Examples: ✓ "Kingston Fury 16GB DDR4-3200" → Category: spare parts - ram ✓ "Samsung 970 EVO 1TB NVMe" → Category: spare parts - nvme ✓ "Intel Core i7-12700K" → Category: spare parts - cpu ✓ "LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i" → Category: spare parts - raid card ✗ "6ft SATA Cable" → Category: Cabling ✗ "M3 Mounting Screws" → Category: Consumable
