Return For Service Procedures
When returning products to Powerwave, the following procedures will ensure optimum response.
Obtaining An RMA
A Return Material Authorization (RMA) number must be obtained prior to returning equipment and to reduce
delays in receiving repair service. Please contact our Repair Department at [phone] to obtain this
number, or FAX your request to [phone].
Repackaging for Shipment
To ensure safe shipment of a component, it is recommended that the original packing materials be reused If
this is not possible, use suitable shipping cartons and foam inserts to prevent damage in transit.
CAUTION: When removing the MCPA from the sys
tem, support the MCPA to prevent the
rear of the MCPA from suddenly dropping when the guide rail disengages from the track.
Dropping the MCPA can damage the rear multi-pin connector. The MCPA weighs
approximately 20 lbs. (9.1 kg).
