All equipment goes through a rigourous 17 point inspection

Most refurbished equipment comes 'as-is', putting your systems, company and reputation on the line. Impulse delivers quality equipment held to the high standards of our field-leading engineers.

On top of insuring the equipment we send you is rigourously tested, we include a guarantee. Period.

Refurbishment Process

We are proud to say that the failure rate during the Warranty period of equipment that we sell is less than 1%.

Impulse Technology puts all equipment that we receive through the following testing procedures:

1. When a piece of equipment is received, it is first subjected to a physical inspection to ensure no damage was incurred during shipment.
2. It is required that all internal and external serial numbers match, and all manufacturer markings/labels are intact. Any units found with these deficiencies are returned to the seller.
3. All units that do not have their tamper stickers intact, or are broken, will be opened and heavily scrutinized.
4. If the main board or other internal components are missing hardware the unit will be returned to the seller or completely refurbished by Impulse Technology engineers.
5. If a piece of equipment has any repairable minor damage to the case or has missing screws or mounting brackets we fix and/or replace them.
6. All equipment is powered and run at all input voltage capabilities.
7. All products are upgraded to the latest diagnostic software and tested at the highest level possible.
8. All equipment is allowed to warm up to normal operating temperature before any further diagnostics are performed. This helps in finding any thermal problems the unit may have.
9. If the equipment has the ability to run internal diagnostics they are performed. All internal diagnostic results are recorded and a copy is included with the unit when purchased.
10. Any empty chassis we acquire are populated to capacity with known functional blades to ensure all slots, power receptacles, and connectors are functional.
11. All hot swappable cards, power supplies, and modules are tested to ensure they do not leave you with down time in the event you ever need to change a faulty component.
12. All switches have every ports individually tested to ensure they operate at peak performance.
13. All redundant systems are put through fail over tests to verify reliability.
14. All equipment is configured and tested under real conditions to insure proper operation. This includes all layer 2, 3, and 4 protocols that the unit is designed to support.
15. Once a piece of equipment passes all diagnostic steps, it is thoroughly cleaned and packaged for stock.
16. Any unit that has been in stock is rechecked prior to shipping when it is selected to fill an order.
17. If a unit from stock is updated with a different operating system, additional diagnostic tests are run and the new test results included with the unit.

All products we ship are professionally packaged in either the original manufacturers boxes or with our state of the art custom fit Insta-Pak system to ensure that your equipment arrives to your company in excellent condition.
