Interoperability with OPTera Long Haul 1600OPTera Long Haul 1600 complies with Telcordia specifications. Within thesestandards, scope for variation exists in some details of the implementation. Forexample, the Telcordia standards do not specify what is correct behavior whena facility is taken out of service. Also, signaling limitations in the protocolsprevent the exchange of some aspects of configuration data across theinterface; the operator must ensure that both ends of the interface areconfigured to be compatible. The operator must also be cautious when takingfacilities out of service since the subtending equipment can no longer operatenormally.

2-2 Release history for the OPTera Long Haul 1600 library

December 2002The OPTera Long Haul 1600 Release 7 Rev. 1 NTP library describes theenhancements to the original Release 7 1600G Amplifier and the new featuresplanned for the OPTera Long Haul 1600 Release 9 Repeater. Theenhancements to the 1600G Amplifier and the new features of the Repeaterhave now been combined in OPTera Long Haul 1600 Release 9.

The content revisions required to document the enhancements to bothplatforms are captured in the full Release 7, Rev. 1 NTP library and the twobooks of the Release 9 documentation set. The Release 7, Rev. 1 NTP libraryand the Release 9 documentation set are intended to be used together.

As you use the Release 7, Rev. 1 NTP library, you can encounter references tofeatures that are supported by either Release 7, Release 9, or both softwareloads. The following table describes how books are identified in the library.
