How do I obtain warranty services :
If any product encounters issues, the Customer is encouraged to visit ATEN's Support website to find a solution or contact ATEN technical support staff or an authorized service representative. After remote diagnosis and troubleshooting, if ATEN determines that the Customer's product requires its Returned Material Authorization Service (Standard Return‐For‐Repair Service), ATEN will issue an RMA number to the Customer that will remain usable for 3 months. The Customer must package faulty products with fault details, mark the RMA number clearly on the package, and return it to ATEN for repair within the RMA number's period of validity. Products returned without RMA numbers will be rejected. Any product accessories (such as, cables, power adapters, etc.) should be included in the package.
All defective Products sent to ATEN must be packaged in their original boxes (or otherwise properly packaged) in order to prevent damage during transit. ATEN will reject any product which is damaged during shipment or has missing parts. In such cases, the Customer is obliged to pay the then‐current standard ATEN price for the parts missing from the Customer's product and not properly returned to ATEN by the Customer.
The Customer's product will be repaired (or replaced) and delivered to a courier for return shipping to the Customer. ATEN reserves the right to send the Customer a replacement for the entire Product (or a Product with portions replaced) rather than repairing the product that the Customer returned.
The cost of freight and other shipping charges in connection with warranty services is paid for by the sender.
