LIMITED WARRANTY
Hardware:
D-Link warrants its hardware products to be free from defects in workmanship and materials, under normal
use and service, for the following lengths of time from the date of purchase from D-Link or its authorized
reseller:
Product Type Warranty Period
Network adapters Lifetime
Unmanaged and managed hubs Lifetime *
Repeaters, MAUs, transceivers, media converters One year
* Power supply and fans in these devices One year
Spare parts and spare kits 90 days
If a product does not operate as warranted during the applicable warranty period, D-Link shall, at its option and
expense, (1) repair the defective product or part, (2) deliver to Customer an equivalent product or part to replace the
defective item. All products that are replaced will become the property of D-Link. Replacement products may be new
or reconditioned. Any replaced or repaired product or part has a ninety (90) day warranty or the remainder of the initial
warranty period, whichever is longer.
D-Link shall not be responsible for any software, firmware, information, or memory data of Customer contained in,
stored on, or integrated with any products returned to D-Link pursuant to any warranty.
All products with lifetime warranty have a standard five-year warranty. To qualify for lifetime warranty, the
enclosed Product Registration Card must be completed and returned to D-Link within ninety (90) days of
purchase.
Warranty service may be obtained by contacting a D-Link office for a Return Material Authorization (RMA)
number. If a Product Registration Card has not been previously sent, proof of purchase, such as a copy of the
dated purchase invoice, must be provided. Once an RMA number is issued, the defective product must be
shipped back to D-Link prepaid, insured and wrapped in the original or similar shipping package to ensure
that it will not be damaged during shipment. When returning the defective product to D-Link for service, the
RMA number must be marked on the outside of the shipping package. Any product returned without an
RMA number shall be rejected and sent back to the Customer, and D-Link reserves the right to have
Customer bear the cost of sending back such products. A service charge may or may not be levied to
Customer by D-Link. To find out if a service charge is levied or not, and the charged amount, read the RMA
that is returned to Customer, or ask the D-Link office when an RMA is requested.
