Overview

This section provides information about software and documentation.

Software ordering information

The following list provides some need-to-know items before ordering Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend software:

• Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend software is shipped separately from the hardware. Software orders must be placed in addition to the hardware order to receive software.

• Order one set of software for each shelf ordered.

• All system controller (SYSCTL) circuit packs are shipped without software loaded on them. Therefore, software loading must occur at or before installation.

• It may be desirable to have backup CD-ROMs for all releases on hand for backup or initial downloading.

• Release software includes a CD containing the current documentation to accompany the Alcatel-Lucent 1665 DMXtend. Hardcopies of the most current documentation are available through the Online Customer Support (OLCS) site.
