Most purchase’s today will come with a standard warranty for parts and labor. When a there is a decision to migrate or install a new network to Category 6 (CAT 6), the best choice for contractors and installers is to choose a manufacturer that warranties their CAT 6 products. There are several types of warranties being offered in the industry, but the 30 Year Certified System Warranty is one of the best choices for a reliable CAT 6 system that's supported in full by the manufacturer.
30 Year Certified System Warranties
Contractors and installers today want to install a CAT 6 structured cabling solution with a 30 Year Certified System Warranty. The benefits for a certified system allows contractors and installers to ensure the CAT 6 cabling infrastructure will be supported not only by them, but from the manufacturers themselves, even if the contractor or installer was to go out of business. Another key benefit is that contractors and installers are able to offer more with their services to customers, share peace of mind, and know that there is support when it is needed.
