Optical Transceivers
Coverage
The following EPIC products are covered by this Lifetime Warranty:
All Epic branded or OEM transceivers (GBIC, SFP, SFP Plus, XFP, X2 and XENPAK transceivers from 100BaseT to 10GB and above) purchased from Epic. Epic Branded Media Converters and Fiber Cable Assemblies as well as all laptop, desktop and server application DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory) memory modules and Flash Memory cards (e.g. Secure Digital, Compact Flash, ATA Cards, Multimedia Card, Smart Media).
To obtain warranty service, you may return a defective product to the authorized EPIC reseller or distributor from which you purchased the EPIC product.
Please confirm the terms of your reseller’s or distributor’s return policies prior to returning the product. Typically, you must include product identification information, including model number and serial number (if applicable) with a detailed description of the problem you are experiencing. You must also include proof of the date of original retail purchase as evidence that the product is within the applicable warranty period.
For distributors and authorized resellers you may return the product directly to EPIC after first obtaining a Return Material Authorization (“RMA”) number from EPIC. An RMA number is obtained by either contacting us or by calling EPIC Customer Support at (720) 904-5200.
Once you have obtained an RMA number from EPIC, you must, within thirty (30) days, send the product freight-prepaid and insured to:
Epic Broadband Solutions
112 Inverness Circle East, Unit B
Englewood, CO 80112
Products shipped to the factory must be properly packaged to prevent damage in transit. You must include the EPIC RMA number prominently displayed on the outside of your package. If you send your product to the factory without the RMA number prominently displayed on the outside of the package, it will be returned to you unopened.
If a network or computer system manufacturer’s sales representative tells you the use of another manufacture’s memory/GBIC’s/GLC’s in the system manufacturer’s network or computer system will render the system manufacturer’s warranty void, this is a violation of the Magnuson-Moss Act.
Through this ploy, the sales representative attempts to coerce customers into purchasing memory/GBIC/GLC modules from the system manufacturer, usually at grossly over inflated prices. A system manufacturer may resort to this type of warranty threat to spread fear, uncertainty and doubt in the minds of consumers, rather than to compete on the basis of quality and price.
In general, “Tie-In Sales” provisions are not allowed. Such a provision requires the customer to purchase all components directly from the OEM or the warranty is rendered void.
