Win32_ComputerSystemProduct: Querying Computer System Product Info Remotely (CIM Session)
Runs the same Win32_ComputerSystemProduct WQL query against a remote computer over a CIM session — the modern, WinRM-based replacement for old DCOM WMI queries.
ComputerSystemProductRemote.ps1
<#
.SYNOPSIS
WQL reference: querying Computer System Product Info on a remote computer (Win32_ComputerSystemProduct).
.DESCRIPTION
The same WQL SELECT statement used locally works unchanged against a
remote computer — only the connection changes. This uses a CIM
session (WinRM-based), the modern replacement for the old DCOM-based
-ComputerName parameter on Get-WmiObject.
.PARAMETER ComputerName
Name or IP address of the remote computer. WinRM must be enabled
there (Enable-PSRemoting) and you need admin rights on it.
.EXAMPLE
.\ComputerSystemProductRemote.ps1 -ComputerName SERVER01

Get-CimInstance -CimSession $session -Query $wqlQuery | Format-Table -Property Name, Vendor, Version, IdentifyingNumber -AutoSize
} finally {
Remove-CimSession -CimSession $session
