Warranty
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, D-Link Systems, Inc. (“D-Link”) provides this lifetime product warranty for hardware:
• Only for products purchased, delivered and used within the fifty states of the United States, the District of Columbia, U.S. Possessions or
Protectorates, U.S. Military Installations, or addresses with an APO or FPO, and;
• Only with proof of purchase.
Product Warranty: D-Link warrants that the hardware portion of the D-Link product, including internal and external power supplies and fans
(“Hardware”), will be free from material defects in workmanship and materials under normal use from the date of original retail purchase of the
product (“Warranty Period”), except as otherwise stated herein.
The customer's sole and exclusive remedy and the entire liability of D-Link and its suppliers under this Warranty will be, at D-Link’s option, to repair
or replace the defective Hardware during the Warranty Period at no charge to the owner or to refund the actual purchase price paid. Any repair or
replacement will be rendered by D-Link at an Authorized D-Link Service Office. The replacement hardware need not be new or have an identical
make, model or part. D-Link may, at its option, replace the defective Hardware or any part thereof with any reconditioned product that D-Link
reasonably determines is substantially equivalent (or superior) in all material respects to the defective Hardware. Repaired or replacement hardware
will be warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty Period or ninety (90) days, whichever is longer, and is subject to the same limitations
and exclusions. If a material defect is incapable of correction, or if D-Link determines that it is not practical to repair or replace the defective
Hardware, the actual price paid by the original purchaser for the defective Hardware will be refunded by D-Link upon return to D-Link of the
defective Hardware. All Hardware or part thereof that is replaced by D-Link, or for which the purchase price is refunded, shall become the property
of D-Link upon replacement or refund.
Software Warranty: D-Link warrants that the software portion of the product (“Software”) will substantially conform to D-Link’s then current
functional specifications for the Software, as set forth in the applicable documentation, from the date of original retail purchase of the Software for a
period of ninety (90) days (“Software Warranty Period”), provided that the Software is properly installed on approved hardware and operated as
contemplated in its documentation. D-Link further warrants that, during the Software Warranty Period, the magnetic media on which D-Link delivers
the Software will be free of physical defects. The customer's sole and exclusive remedy and the entire liability of D-Link and its suppliers under this
Limited Warranty will be, at DLink’s option, to replace the non-conforming Software (or defective media) with software that substantially conforms to
D-Link’s functional specifications for the Software or to refund the portion of the actual purchase price paid that is attributable to the Software.
Except as otherwise agreed by D-Link in writing, the replacement Software is provided only to the original licensee, and is subject to the terms and
conditions of the license granted by D-Link for the Software. Replacement Software will be warranted for the remainder of the original Warranty
Period and is subject to the same limitations and exclusions. If a material non-conformance is incapable of correction, or if D-Link determines in its
sole discretion that it is not practical to replace the nonconforming Software, the price paid by the original licensee for the non-conforming Software
will be refunded by D-Link; provided that the non-conforming Software (and all copies thereof) is first returned to D-Link. The license granted
respecting any Software for which a refund is given automatically terminates.
Non-Applicability of Warranty: The Warranty provided hereunder for D-Link's products will not be applied to and does not cover any products
obtained through a special or unique pricing agreement, if such agreement provides for warranty terms different from those normally provided with
the product or set forth herein, nor to any refurbished product and any product purchased through the inventory clearance or liquidation sale or
other sales in which DLink, the sellers, or the liquidators expressly disclaim their warranty obligation pertaining to the product and in that case, the
product is being sold "As-Is" without any warranty whatsoever including, without limitation, the Warranty as described herein, notwithstanding
anything stated herein to the contrary.
Submitting A Claim: The customer shall return the product to the original purchase point based on its return policy. In case the return policy period
has expired and the product is within warranty, the customer shall submit a claim to D-Link as outlined below:
• The customer must submit with the product as part of the claim a written description of the Hardware defect or Software nonconformance in
sufficient detail to allow D-Link to confirm the same, along with proof of purchase of the product (such as a copy of the dated purchase invoice
for the product).
• The customer must obtain a Case ID Number from D-Link Technical Support by going to https://support.dlink.com, who will attempt to assist
the customer in resolving any suspected defects with the product. If the product is considered defective, the customer must obtain a Return
Material Authorization (“RMA”) number by completing the RMA form and entering the assigned Case ID Number at https://rma.dlink.com/.
• After an RMA number is issued, the defective product must be packaged securely in the original or other suitable shipping package to ensure
that it will not be damaged in transit, and the RMA number must be prominently marked on the outside of the package. Include any manuals or
accessories in the shipping package.
• The customer is responsible for all in-bound shipping charges to D-Link. No Cash on Delivery (“COD”) is allowed. Products sent COD will
either be rejected by D-Link or become the property of D-Link. Products shall be fully insured by the customer and shipped to D-Link
Systems, Inc., 17595 Mt. Herrmann, Fountain Valley, CA 92708. D-Link will not be held responsible for any packages that are lost in transit
to D-Link. The repaired or replaced packages will be shipped to the customer via UPS Ground or any common carrier selected by D-Link.
Return shipping charges shall be prepaid by D-Link if you use an address in the United States, otherwise we will ship the product to you freight
collect. Expedited shipping is available upon request and provided shipping charges are prepaid by the customer.
D-Link may reject or return any product that is not packaged and shipped in strict compliance with the foregoing requirements, or for which an RMA
number is not visible from the outside of the package. The product owner agrees to pay D-Link’s reasonable handling and return shipping charges
for any product that is not packaged and shipped in accordance with the foregoing requirements, or that is determined by D-Link not to be defective
or nonconforming.

pertaining to the product. While necessary maintenance or repairs on your Product can be performed by any company, we recommend that you use
only an Authorized D-Link Service Office. Improper or incorrectly performed maintenance or repair voids this Warranty.
