REPAIR SERVICES
Cabletron offers an out-of-warranty repair service for all our products at our Santa Clara Repair Facility. Products 
returned for repair will be repaired and returned within 5 working days. A product sent directly to Cabletron Systems, 
Inc. for repair must first be assigned a Return Material Authorization (RMA) number. A product sent to Cabletron 
Systems, Inc., without an RMA number displayed outside the box will be returned to the sender unopened, at the 
sender's expense.
To obtain an RMA number, contact the Cabletron Technical Support. When you call for an RMA number, your support 
representative will spend a few minutes with you, making sure the board is defective. Once they confirm the board is 
defective, they will assign an RMA number. Payment, shipping instructions, and turnaround time will be confirmed 
when the RMA number is assigned.
