Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF)   is a reliability term used to provide the amount of failures per million hours for a product. This is the most common inquiry about a product’s life span, and is important in the decision-making process of the end user. MTBF is more important for industries and integrators than for consumers. Most consumers are price driven and will not take MTBF into consideration, nor is the data often readily available. On the other hand, when equipment such as media converters or switches must be installed into mission critical applications, MTBF becomes very important. In addition, MTBF may be an expected line item in an RFQ (Request For Quote). Without the proper data, a manufacturer’s piece of equipment would be immediately disqualified. Mean Time To Repair (MTTR)   is the time needed to repair a failed hardware module. In an operational system, repair generally means replacing a failed hardware part. Thus, hardware MTTR could be viewed as mean time to...
