Message-ID: <163@uf-csv.UUCP> Date: Tue, 25-Dec-84 13:29:53 EST Article-I.D.: uf-csv.163 Posted: Tue Dec 25 13:29:53 1984 Date-Received: Sun, 30-Dec-84 02:02:52 EST Organization: Univ of Fla, Computer and Information Science Lines: 27 Is anyone out there in net land having problems with SYTEK 20/222 reliability? I have had five of these babies go out on me in the past three months. This might not be unusual for units purchased at about the same time, but we installed our supermuxes in July of THIS year and I think they oughtn't be failing so soon, at least not so close together. Five of the twenty-four boards we have is really LOUSY if this is indicative of the reliability we can expect. SYTEK has been pretty helpful, and they are checking on it at the production end. My real question is: Is my problem with these strictly local, or have other people been experiencing similar problems? Is there anyone out there with a big enough installation to be doing a study of the reliability of these units independant of SYTEK? I'd sure appreciate some input...
