Uptime Loaner Program

Our Uptime loaner program is designed to provide domestic users of our headend products and commercial systems the best possible support and service. This 

program is established to minimize downtime resulting from equipment failure in critical service situations. We offer this program free-of-charge (excluding freight) to qualified 
purchasers within the warranty period. The program provides a free equipment loan of like qualified equipment enabling seamless operation for the time required to repair and 
return the unit.

The process is simple. Call our Customer Service desk requesting a return-merchandise-authorization (RMA) number for the failed equipment and ask for a loaner unit. We will 
issue an invoice for the List Price of the loaner unit plus shipping costs. When you receive the loaner unit, pack the failed unit in the loaner unit’s box and ship it freight prepaid 
to Pico Macom for repair. When you receive the repaired unit, a new RMA number will be provided in the box. Carefully pack the loaner unit and affix the new RMA number 
on the box and ship it back to us for full credit excluding shipping costs.

To qualify for the program, you must have current open-terms with us and in good standing. We must receive your failed unit within one week after the loaner unit is shipped to 
you, and must likewise receive the loaner unit within one week after the repaired unit is shipped back to you. Daily rental fees not to exceed 10% of the equipment’s List Price 
will apply beyond one week after the loaner or repaired unit are shipped to you. Other limitations may apply, so please call us for additional information on qualifying equipment 
and procedures. Pico Macom reserves the right to modify or discontinue the Uptime Loaner Program at any time, and at its sole discretion.

Damage or Shortage Claims

Our shipping staff carefully packs and ships your orders in compliance with common carriers’ requirements. Please make note of any obvious damage or shortage on the freight 
bill or carrier’s receipt next to your signature. The carrier’s agent must too sign acknowledging the loss. Failure to do so may result in the carrier’s refusal to honor the claim. 
Please open your order immediately upon receipt to check for concealed damage and compare the packing list to the items shipped. If damaged, keep the original shipping 
cartons for possible inspection by the carrier. You must report claims for loss or damage within 3 days of delivery, while claims for erroneous charges or price corrections must 
be presented within 30 days of invoice date.

Returning Shipped Items

To return any shipped items, including those shipped for warranty repairs or credit, call our Customer Service desk to request a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) 
number. Please reference the original invoice number and purchase date, and product serial number (if any). Be certain to mark the RMA number on the package boldly and 
legibly. Unless we specify a different carrier, please ship your returned items to us via UPS freight prepaid and fully insured. If returned for credit, we will promptly process 
your request upon receipt of your return order.
