On the search results page, we strive to provide as much information as possible about a product but have a limited area of space in order to do so. To remedy this, we show icons to convey certain information. The meanings of those icons are as
follows:
 - Drop Ship - Indicates the item is available to be drop shipped directly from the vendor. If there is no stock in a Tech Data warehouse, this item will ship directly from the manufacturer and is subject to availability at the vendor location. Because it must be handled separately from products that ship from Tech Data or directly from other manufacturers, you will also receive multiple order numbers when you place an order if there are other products on your order those ships from Tech Data or from other manufacturers. Please be advised that you will not incur any additional handling charges as a result. Minimum order quantities may apply. Please note that this option is only available to customers who have established terms with us. If you are currently using credit card terms or COD, please contact credit at 1-800-553-7921 so they can further assist you.
 - Bundle - This item is part of a bundle.
 - Leaves - Indicates that the item is considered a green or environmentally friendly product.
 - Energy Star - Indicates that the item is EnergyStar compliant.
