The following describe the warranty terms are generally applicable to Ruijie Networks products sold and market

Under Ruijie Networks International Business Division^*1.

Warranty Scope:

The warranty exclusively defines Ruijie Networks obligations (and hence the customer’s rights) in case of defects of Ruijie Networks products (“Products”). Different policies may apply for different types of Products. Warranties generally include a remote technical support during business hours (“BHS” as defined below) for a limited period as set out below and software updates, but exclude any of the additional benefits that are available to customers that enter into a separate service support contract. Warranties as described in this document do not apply to third party hardware or software that Ruijie Networks may provide in combination with or as part of the Products. Such third party hardware^*2 and software^*3 may however be covered by such third party’s warranty terms.

Unless otherwise agreed, warranty rights are not transferable, i.e. they apply only to the original End Customer.

Warranty Period and Start Date:

A warranty is available during a specific time period (the “Warranty Period”) commencing from the Warranty Start Date. The Warranty commences from the date of shipment to customer (and in case of resale by a Ruijie Networks Authorized Reseller or Value Added Partner, not more than 90 days after original shipment by Ruijie Networks. For Reyee series products, not more than 180 days after original shipment by Ruijie Networks.).

Business Remote Hours Support (BRHS):

Remote technical assistance includes technical consultation, troubleshooting and bug fixing. Such technical assistance is provided by Ruijie TAC or Ruijie IBD Post sales during 9:00 a.m. - 23:00 p.m.(UTC +8)  from Monday to Sunday via both online live chat (https://www.ruijienetworks.com/rita) and Ruijie Service Portal (https://caseportal.ruijienetworks.com/), and we are having an 24*7 Online Support chat via RITA at https://www.ruijienetworks.com/rita  on low severity support,

Standard Hardware Warranty:

Products sold by Ruijie Networks regionally will entitle for Warranty Period of thirty-six (36) months. Ruijie provides a 1-year warranty for the power adapter included with Reyee series devices. The warranty start date is consistent with the device warranty start date based on the device S/N(Serial number). During the

Warranty Period, Ruijie Networks will replace faulty hardware with refurbished or new equipment in the case the

hardware cannot be repaired. For standard as well as extended hardware Warranty, the ‘Return For Repair (“RFR”)

policy which aims to ship the replacement Product in thirty (30) Calendar Days (“30CD-Ship”) ^*4 after receipt of the

faulty Product at the local Ruijie Networks Spare Parts center will apply.

If the hardware fault occurs after the warranty expires, the customer is required to make a supplementary payment for the warranty service. For example,

if the warranty expired on December 31, 2018, yet the device fails on January 1, 2020, then the customer should pay for the 2 years of warranty service to 

obtain the free maintenance.

Claim and Hardware Return Procedures:

An eligible customer^*6 may submit its RMA request through Ruijie Networks service representative^*7, Ruijie  Network service representative  will handle the RMA request and shall issue a corresponding RMA number.  If the RMA form has been received after 2:00 p.m. GMT+8, the request will be considered received on the next business day.

The following items are generally excluded from the RMA service provided by Ruijie Networks:

• Handling and shipping costs for sending the faulty parts back to Ruijie Networks designated location;
• On-site hardware replacement.

For Products with the Hardware Replacement policy, the faulty parts must be returned to a designated Ruijie Networks site within fifteen (15) business days after receiving the replacement equipment. In the event such parts are not returned in this period, Ruijie Networks reserves the right to charge the then-current list price of the replacement part provided.

When returning a Product, the RMA number must be displayed on the outside packing of the returned item. All Products and parts to be returned must be packed securely and must avoid physical damage and electrostatic discharge. Ruijie Networks shall pay transportation costs incurred with the delivery of the replacement equipment to customer. If Ruijie Networks determines, at its sole discretion, that the returned Product is not defect or that the Warranty claim is invalid due to the Warranty exclusion policy listed below, the cost of replacement, including all shipping fees, shall be paid by the RMA requesting party.

Warranty for Replaced Part:

The Warranty Period for a Product that is replaced during its original Warranty Period shall be the greater of i) the balance of the remaining Warranty Period for the original part or ii) three months from the date that the replacement Product is delivered to the customer.
