What to know when buying Adtran TA600 & TA900 Series IAD’s

Buyer Beware!

Adtran TA600 & TA900 Series IAD's

Buyer Beware!

Two years ago we were all scrambling trying to find TA600 Series IAD's on the refurb or as some may call the "gray market". Everyone wants to save money! In this day and age typing in "600 Series IAD" in Google and you will find around 100 different suppliers. The market is pretty cut and dry as vendors are basically giving away Adtran 608, 616's and 624's. There is a catch...Many of us are being burned and receiving incomplete units, missing brackets or power cords, scratched up so badly you can't even read the part # and even suppliers that are not warranting their equipment. If the price seems "to good to be true".  Well, trust your instinct! I keep a check list when buying or being offered these refurb/gray market Adtran IAD's.

1. Make sure all necessary hardware, power cords and mounting brackets are included
2. What kind of condition are these in? Physical condition? I sometimes will even request a picture if I am still skeptical
3. Are the units tested prior to shipping?
4. Does the supplier offer at least a 2 year warranty or more? 
5. What is the replacement policy - hassle free?
6. Is this a credible supplier?

There is nothing worse then purchasing something from someone only to find out the unit doesn't work and the supplier is no longer in business!

Does anyone have any helpful hints on buying or overall maintenance on the TA600 or TA900 Series IAD's?

 

Economy Worries and Copper Prices DROP?

As the US dollar loses value, housing market slumps and prices are raised on gas and postage stamps, we are all asking ourselves when will this get better?  How could copper possibly drop in price?

 

I have some great news for you Wireless, EF&I’s and Utility companies….  The prices on copper did get better this week!  Analysts say this week copper was down 8 cents to $3.46 per pound. This decrease in price comes from a recent drop in demand.  Of course the Olympic Games may hold the key to this decrease in demand.  Nevertheless, consumers are being told to stock up on the power wire while the prices remain steady.When looking for a Cable Vendor, ask if the Vendor can provide same day shipping. Also ask if your Vendor offers a cutting and labeling program in house. Many Vendors will only ship standard size reels such as 5000 ft per reel. There are select Vendors who are willing to cut these down to size for you and re-label to fit your specific needs.

 

I am curious to know what power cable others are currently using and what kind of fluctuation in prices you are seeing.   AIW Wire seems to be constantly going up where as General Cable seems to stay steady.

 

Who do you see having the best prices on telecom and power cable ?

Beware of "In Stock" Telecom Batteries

  In this time of "I need it yesterday" and "No Downtime", our networks have made battery back-up a complete necessity. A year ago it seemed there was no end in sight to how much lead would go up and the manufacturers couldn't keep up with demand. The idea for distributors was to stock up before it got too bad, but there in lies the problem.

When you stock up, you must ship out because batteries are not "patient" when they sit on the shelf, even in optimal conditions. One very important factor in deciding on a battery is the date code, or how long those have been sitting around since they actually left the factory. Recently, the lead times and prices for telecom batteries have slightly improved. Now that the lead times are more reasonable (4-5 weeks rather than 18-20), you can guarantee yourself a better battery by making sure yours comes straight from the assembly line.

There's nothing worse than counting on your batteries to keep you running for 8 hours until you can get back up and having them drop out after 10 minutes. Now, don't get me wrong, they can be brought back from storage damage IF they are not too far gone. According to Northstar Battery Company the storage life of most telecom batteries while in storage is 2 years at +25°C (+77°F). Most manufacturers recommend that batteries be stored in a cool dry place, away from an ignition source, and properly ventilated. However, many storage facilities are not climate controlled, and due to this, the storage life of a telecom battery may be significantly less than 2 years.

Graph  below shows that the storage life of a battery is reduced as the temperature is increased above +25°C (+77°F).

 

 

AT&T decreases spending

AT&T Inc. has reported that they plan to cut spending in the "hundreds of millions of dollars" for the second half of 2008 compared to the first two quarters.  In 2007, AT&T spent approximately $119 billion for new equipment.  I've been told they will continue to build out the U-verse (phone, data, and TV services) and third generation wireless.

Telecom Links to Make Your Life Easier

Whether you are new to the telecom industry or a seasoned veteran, you'll have to agree that sorting through the tons of information that you are bombarded with throughout your day can be a daunting task. As someone working in sales of telecom equipment, I can assure you that I'm always looking for ways to make my life easier. I'm sure you are too. I hope the following list of links proves to be useful to you.

• List of Telecom Acronyms - Need to know what that weird abbreviation stands for? Here's a list from A/M to ZZK of Telecom Acronym definitions.

• Online Dictionary of Computing - Like the first link, this link is really helpful to the newbie. It's an online Dictionary of Computing. Don't let the word "computing" throw you. I entered a couple telecom terms and found it brought back accurate definitions.
  

• Telecom Encyclopedia - This is another good place to look up terms commonly used. I entered "fiber optic connectors" and it sent me to a page with a good definition and a chart with pictures of each type of connector. It also showed step-by step instructions -with pictures- on how to attach the connectors.
  

• Online Manuals - I use this site all the time-not just for work. It helped me fix my vacuum cleaner and to reprogram my DVR remote control. I'm the world's worst to lose the manuals that come with the stuff I buy. Well anyway, it's a great place to search for online manuals of all kinds. They also have a forum where you can ask for the manual if you don't see the one you need.

• Telecom News - One Stop telecom news of the day

• White Papers - Ever wonder if there is a central place that stores telecommunication White Papers...there is! (registration required)

• Telecom Events - Want to take a trip on the boss's dime? Here are some places you could go. For those of you too valuable to the company to be allowed out of the office, you can search the archive they have quite a few online webinars that look very informative and don't require an expense account.

Warning- Shameless Self-promotion ahead:

• Telecom Equipment - If you need to find new oem, used or refurbished telecom equipment at the lowest price this is the absolute best place to search for telecom equipment

If you know of some sites that have been useful to you please feel free to post them in the comments.
