Why are so many items, like the P2-622, backordered?
Seems like for the past 3 months, the P2-622 shows thousands more are coming within the next few days, but none come. Constantly backordered and the date keeps getting pushed. Particular parts shortage? Issues in China? Issues in USA?
Unrelated to the Productivity, but same goes for the Ziplink products. What's the holdup there? Are there specific components the factories can't get? We haven't been able to get the feedthrough modules for months.

Used to be a ton of stock issues due to covid nonsense. Things got better for a couple years, and now it seems stock issues due to ram/storage nonsense.
Yeah no kidding. I'm not staunchly anti-data center but they have made it difficult to get parts. RAM of course but even DIN rail was out of stock locally at one point.
We apologize for the out of stock situation. We sell our products to customers like you on a first come, first served basis and for the last few months we keep having some customers order large quantities of some of the Productivity2000 modules. As a result the hardware manufacturer is having difficulty keeping up.
Customers like you can get in the queue for product by placing orders now to get the product as soon as it is available.
We are doing our best to get all our products back in stock and appreciate your patience as we work to remedy the situation.
