Frequently Asked Questions

When does the warranty period start?
The warranty term begins on the delivery date shown on your order. If you submit an RMA within the warranty period and return the product as instructed, the claim is treated as in-warranty even if the unit arrives after the term ends.
Do I pay shipping for warranty repairs?
For approved warranty claims on defects covered under this policy, Fiberluma covers round-trip freight for repair or replacement.
What is the difference between a return and a warranty claim?
Returns within 30 days are handled under our Returns & Refunds policy. Warranty service applies after delivery when a product develops a covered defect within the warranty term for its category.
Are custom patch cords eligible for return?
Custom-length cables, special connector combinations, and other made-to-order items are not eligible for 30-day return or exchange unless Fiberluma shipped the wrong product or a confirmed quality defect.
