Newbridge MainStreet 36030,

Jaqui,

I use a lot of Alcatel Optical Fibre Switches/Converters etc so I'll ask if they have a user manual for one of them available. Under a normal situation I wouldn't be holding out too much hope but as I have a [b]Big[/b] order in at the moment and I'll make a polite request and they might go that little bit extra for me and the dealers here might have a manual that they could copy for me. No promises mind you but I'll try.

Lets know if anything else crops up and I'll forget it if you can get something quicker or easier. It's just with the size of this order they are far more likely to go that bit extra to get the sale and as they where the dealer for Newbridge before Alcatel the Techs might have something available just for reference.

Col,
Thanks. since the Alcatel site doesn't even list their old brand name products anymore, I figured someone here might have an idea where to find the manuals.

I even checked the sites listing that they carry old Newbridge products and parts. no documentation available at all.

The last I knew Newbridge MainStreet line was voice/data Customer Premise Equipment for bandwidth management and Newbridge did not make routers. Alcatel web site does not show a product over 9999 no 3603, so I suspect 3630 ?

Most Newbridge line could be accessed from the 9.6 standard comm port. Programming is done in asci and most portions were easily understandable (a few tricks for super-rate circuits). Newbridge never went to the electronic version of documentation, they did provide limited documentation with each major product.

OTL,
I think this particular product line was killed by Newbridge shortly after they bought out Mainstreet back in the 1980s

I noticed that Alcatel doesn't mention the product line, that's why I posted this question.
