Software

Updates

In order to configure and manage your AT-MC601 and AT-MC602 VDSL
network extenders, you need to download a copy of the configuration
software onto the computers you will use to manage the units. The AT-
S57 configuration software is included on the Documentation CD
provided with the units.
New releases of the AT-S57 configuration software are available from the
Allied Telesyn Web site at www.alliedtelesyn.com or from our FTP
server at ftp.alliedtelesyn.com. To log on to the FTP server, enter
“anonymous” for the user name and your email address for the
password. Management software for the AT-MC601 and AT-MC602 VDSL
network extenders will have “S57” as part of the file name.
