When will my cables ship?
Orders for in-stock products placed before 2:00 PM Pacific Time will be shipped the same day under most circumstances. Orders placed after 2:00 PM may ship the following day.
Most custom orders are filled in 1 to 3 days, depending on size and complexity.
If your shipment is delayed or backordered for any reason, our staff will contact you to offer alternative options, and determine how you would like to proceed.
When your package is scanned for shipment, an email
confirmation, with tracking number, is automatically sent to the address on the order.
|
|
|
Why didn't I receive a confirmation/tracking email?
For your convenience, we automatically email confirmations for online orders when they are
received by our system, and tracking numbers for packages as they are shipped. Because
these emails are automatically generated, if you use a spam filter that requires human
authentication you will not receive any notifications.
Please note that tracking information is not available for shipments sent
via USPS or some international postal carriers.

Are your cables RoHS compliant?
Virtually all of our cables are compliant with the Reduction of
Hazardous Substances directive (where applicable).
If a cable is certified to be RoHS, including compliant with the Deca-BDE
restrictions*, this logo will appear on the
product webpage:
If you have any questions about specific
products, or require additional RoHS compliance documentation with your order, please contact our Sales department.
* Deca-BDE is polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE). The
EU recently eliminated a technical exemption that had applied to Deca-BDE,
and the substance is now banned under the RoHS legislation.

|
What connectors are included on your faceplates?
|
For versatility, all of our faceplates are packaged as bare plates only. They are designed to to interface with our panel-mount cables and couplers.
Every connection on a cable run reduces signal strength and allows noise, so for optimal signal quality, we strongly recommend the use of panel-mount cables over pass-throughs wherever possible.
For more information, please see our Face Plate Guide.

|
Do you offer marking on plates?
|
Yes! We offer both engarving and laser marking of all plates we sell. Just contact us for details.

Do you have technical drawings of your panel-mount cables?
|
We have schematics with all dimensions necessary for cutting and installing panel-mount cables, which can be provided to customers integrating our cables into larger products. These are available to our customers upon request, and can be downloaded from the product information pages.
Minor product revisions may occur without notice, so if exact dimensions are important to your application, please download and review the latest version of our drawing before placing your order.
