Should an Axis product be found to be defective within 30 days from the date of purchase, you are entitled to a new unit. You must always have a helpdesk case to verify that the unit is authorized for a 30-day replacement. Your Axis approved partner will then replace the faulty unit with a new unit.

Warranty replacement and repair*

Should an Axis product be found to be defective within the warranty period, it is defined as an RMA (Return Material Authorization) claim. This entitles you to have the unit either repaired or replaced. You must always have a helpdesk case to verify that the unit is authorized for RMA. Your Axis approved partner will test and repair the unit. If it is not repairable, it will be replaced with a refurbished unit.

Out of warranty and repair*

If you have a broken unit that is out of the warranty period, you are welcome to contact Axis online helpdesk for troubleshooting. Out of Warranty products will be handled at Axis' discretion.* To determine a product's warranty, you may need to send a proof of purchase to the technical support engineer who will assist you. If the product is determined to be defective, an RMA will be issued and you will be advised how to return the product with the RMA number clearly marked on the outside of the package.
