[cisco-voip] SemiOT - Serial Number Lookups

[Matthew Loraditch]

Does anyone know if the below is an accurate way to pull manufacturing dates from Serials? One of my guys found this on a discussion group and I had never heard of it before. If it is does anyone know what they are going to do for a 2012 Year code?

Year codes:
01 = 1997
02 = 1998
03 = 1999
04 = 2000
05 = 2001
06 = 2002
07 = 2003
08 = 2004
09 = 2005
10 = 2006
11 = 2007
12 = 2008
13 = 2009
14 = 2010
15 = 2011
********************
Week codes:
1-5 : January
6-9 : February
10-14 : March
15-18 : April
19-22 : May
23-27 : June
28-31 : July
32-35 : August
36-40 : September
41-44 : October
45-48 : November
49-52 : December

*********************
Do a "show version" and locate the System Serial Number.
The serial number is in this format: LLLYYWWSSSS
LLL = location of the supplier
YY = year of manufacture
WW = week of manufacture
SSSS = serial-id
