Re: (ASCEND) More K56Cards failures...




 The way I found out here was that I deployed K56 Cards into all chassis
that I had, They ran fine for about 30 days, Then they started loose
cards and chassis would just die, I also run 3 pri's into my boxes
so I'm pulling more power than most. 

 Ascend has yet to publically admit that this is a problem, I'm guessing
the cost on RMA'ing all those chassis doesn't look too good, but I'm
sure they are RMA'ing ton's of <645XXX chassis. Kevin? I hate to put you
on the spot, But what is Ascends stance of older chassis and K56 cards
