Single-Mode Fiber Attenuators
Attenuators may be required when using single-mode fiber. See the table below.
A different value attenuator may be required even though the fiber span is
between the same 2 cabinets (local and remote cabinet). For detailed fiber
attenuator information, refer to the multicarrier cabinet installation procedures in
the Made Easy tools.

License File
Remote Feature Activation (RFA) is a Web-based application that enables the
creation and deployment of License Files for all switches. The License File
enables the switch’s software category, release, features, and capacities. License
Files are created using SAP order information and/or current customer
configuration information. Without a license file, the switch does not provide
normal call processing.
Service Interruption
The upgrade process requires a service interruption of about 40 minutes.
Coordinate this service interruption with the customer and the local account team.
Call Management System (CMS)
The CMS link is dropped and restarted during the upgrade, causing:
■
Loss of CMS data. To minimize the measurement data loss, perform the
upgrade just after the last CMS measurement interval. If needed, print the
reports before starting the upgrade.
■
Dropped calls (call processing aborted) if a measured trunk that was part of
the conference dropped off the call before the end of the call. Customers
experiencing this symptom and who are running R3V4 CMS should update
to r3v4ao.e or higher.
