We supply customers UK-wide with a broad range of telecommunications network hardware components, both new and refurbished. we've an outsized warehouse adjoining our offices that holds stock from leading manufacturers like Avaya, Mitel, Cisco, Plantronics, Polycom, Panasonic, Huawei telecom equipment , Nokia telecom equipment etc. Here are a number of the foremost common questions we receive about refurbished or used network equipment.
Why should I buy refurbished network infrastructure components rather than new?
In general, “A1” quality refurbished equipment will save between 30-40% off the worth of equivalent new hardware. This hardware carries a guaranty and aesthetically appears as new, so there's little or no downside of buying refurbished rather than new.
Is there anything to offer me peace of mind that I’m not buying a dud?
All of our hardware is individually tested in-house by a professional engineer to make sure that it's functioning as new. We replace any applicable peripheral equipment which will be worn, for instance button packs and curly cords on our Avaya handsets. Finally, we offer a comprehensive warranty of either 3 or 6 months counting on whether the hardware is A1 or A2 quality.
What’s the difference between A1 and A2 quality?
Both categories of hardware undergo an equivalent rigorous testing and cleaning process. the sole difference is that A1 quality equipment appears as new or with minor cosmetic markings or signs of use. A2 quality refurbished telecoms will have some light cosmetic markings or show some signs of use and includes a 3-month replacement warranty whereas A1 hardware comes with a full 6-month replacement warranty.
Where does this hardware come from?
Refurbished telecoms handsets, especially the handsets that get classified as A1, typically come from a company environment as against tougher working environments like warehouses. We repurchase equipment from these businesses once they update their hardware (for example, changing from digital handsets to IP handsets), then our team refurbish and test the equipment in-house before packaging it to send to our customers.
