Should
I upgrade or enhance my existing network with new or refurbished
equipment?
To
answer this question, we suggest you consider several specific questions:
*
Is the equipment required available on the after-market, or is it
so new that it can only be acquired through the manufacturer?
This
is really a life-cycle question. In today's environment of failed
eCommerce businesses, there is an abundance of leading-edge equipment
available. However, in a normal growth economy, you can expect
to either buy new or wait the 6 to 12 months for equipment to
hit the after-market.
* Can
the desired equipment be acquired in a timely manner?
This
is a supply and demand issue. ADCS-LLC has developed a
network of after-market dealers who stock a wide range of name
brand networking products. We use this "virtual warehouse"
in addition to our existing warehouse of inventory. We also have
consignment lists from end-users who wish to sell equipment that
is not a part of our available inventory.
*
What condition will the equipment come in, and will the discount
be enough to merit the risk of failure due to the unknown use
of the equipment?
First,
we have to make a distinction between the physical longevity of
network equipment in relation to its useful life for a particular
application. A U.S. military study determined that 156 hours is
the time frame within which most network equipment will fail.
If the equipment has not failed within 156 hours, then it should
continue to function for that particular application as long as
required.
ADCS-LLC has
extremely high standards when buying or selling used network equipment.
We test and refurbish every piece of equipment that passes through
our facility. For over 22 years, we have built one of the best reputations
in the industry as reputable and honest re-marketers of network
hardware.
* How does ADCS-LLC pay in your search
for quality refurbished network equipment?
We have built our business around successful
business relationships in buying and selling equipment. The value
to our customers is how we, in a timely manner, source equipment
at prices far below retail and bundled equipment with maintenance
contracts or whatever warranty arrangements are necessary to create
peace of mind in the buying process.
