Procurement checks for distributors
- Confirm whether the deployment is SM, MM, DS, NZDS or G.657 and verify the customer's cable type is compatible with the stated range.
- Check that the required protection-sleeve length is between 20 and 60 mm.
- Confirm the supplied battery, charger, cleaver, holders, electrodes, case and other accessories on the current quotation; package contents can be configuration-specific.
- For fleet orders, request warranty, training and local service details in writing.
