Best you contact
ETC directly or await them to reply to this thread, but my gut reaction is:
+ Budget for the Net3 upgrade. Even if you put it off and there's a Net4 or Net5 that comes along, at some
point you'll be upgrading to it unless you plan on dumping your racks.
+ Budget for new
CEM's. Again, if it's the CEM3 or CEM6+, figure at some
point you'll either want to upgrade or be forced to upgrade or it'll otherwise make sense to do the upgrade.
+ Modules are built to last and total failure is infrequent, though over a couple decades you can expect to replace a number of
power bricks in them.
ETC may be able to ballpark for you if that'll be 3% or 30% failure rate over 20 years on top of how old they already are.
+ In addition to replacing Net1 with NetX, At some
point you'll want to supplement your
DMX with data drops throughout your lighting and control positions, and plan for the
purchase of
portable nodes.
