Shipping

Lately, we have been getting a lot of questions about international shipping so we've decided to post some of the answers right here.  Read on to find out just how easy it is to get quality optical transceivers either shipped directly to you or drop shipped to a location of your choice.
We at Approved Networks, Inc. take pride in our highly flexible logistics capability.  Drop shipping to international and multi-site locations is a daily occurrence at our facility.  Our shipments test and ship the same day the order is received, unless the order is received past 3pm Pacific, but we will most certainly try to get it out if that’s needed.  Larger shipments of 1000+ optics can sometimes take a day or so to test and ship, but nevertheless, we do pride ourselves in the ability to ship product faster than anyone in our industry.  Typically the optics are at your site waiting for the switches/routers to be delivered.  Besides your typical clear channel 1000base through 100G receivers, we pride ourselves on the ability to quick-ship channel specific DWDM and CWDM product.  The channel just can’t compete with our ability to direct support and price colored optics.

The international shipping capability of our on-line check out process makes drop shipping to most world locations easy. Any VAT or tariff pricing, along with the chosen shipping charge according to your delivery needs, is added and the summation price is typically well below the in-country OEM cost for the same optics by the OEM.  We not only save the largest domestic end users in the world by drop-shipping to multiple locations, but we also support non-U.S. Headquartered companies directly.

Approved leverages every major shipping company (Fed Ex, UPS, DHL, and others) in order to calculate the best price for our customers. Although we always send a tracking number to the recipient when product is shipped, many of our customers prefer that we use their shipper number so that everything is reported on their internal shipping ledger.  Approved has shipped to the most remote areas of Africa, Asia, and Latin America, bringing ‘light’ to the most rural areas and the largest companies in the world.

Approved Networks Inc. takes pride in its ability to ship and track multiple orders.  Please let us know if you have any questions regarding our logistics.   Call:  800.590.9535
