What is the difference between new and refurbished telephone equipment?
Refurbished (or re-manufactured) equipment is equipment that has been used and tested and said to be working. Refurbished equipment, however, does not carry the same warranty as new equipment. In general your company’s telecommunications system is too important to risk using used and/or refurbished equipment. We will be able to provide you with further information during the new system configuration and analysis process.
How do I get user guides or manuals?
Manuals and user guides are available in PDF form on our Training Guides page.
What is the standard warranty at SST Communications?
SST Communications offers a 1 year warranty on telephone systems and cabling we sell. Extended service contracts and support plans are available after the first year. Please click here for more information on our support plans.

Can I trade in my old system?
SST Communications will accept trade-ins on most used telephone equipment.

Existing Comdial customers are offered extremely advantageous trade-in values when moving from an existing Comdial system to the new Vertical MBX, SBX or Wave.
