We have been dealing with them for close to a year now and the service has =
been pretty astonishing thus far. I can usually get a price quote within an=
hour, their prices are usually lower than my other vendors and I can get o=
rders shipped the same day. They back everything with an 18 month warranty =
and I have never had to use it yet (knock on wood). I can tell you I trust=
them and they have not let me down yet. They do sell optics for Adtran an=
d Fujitsu but they do not stock hardware for that equipment.

I recommend PICS Telecom. I have dealt with them for the l=
ast 5 years. They sell Telecom and Cisco equipment. It is grey market and=
sometimes brand new stuff. They all give a 1 year warranty on all their s=
tuff and it is all tested. In case something does fail, their RMA process =
is fast and get you brand new stuff the next day.
