Are there compatibility issues with the Option 11C's NTDK20 SSC card and different software revisions? If there are, is there a compatibility chart available somewhere that shows which SSC card is compatible with which revision of software, as well as SSC compatibility for X11 software or Succession software?
 
nortel did have that chart on their tech-web.. i do not have a clue were avaya moved it... the link i had is reaching the dreaded 404 page

According to that document, it would appear that all SSC cards vintages will load any software version, but any advanced software feature functionality is card revision dependent. Does anyone agree or disagree with that?
 
under the M1-CS1000 HareWare compatibility tab it shows 5.5 as the highest supported rls...it's the last column also the specific vintage limitations are listed (ca, ha, ja... etc.)

Here is your answer along with other useful information for the SSC cards, taken from an old guide of mine that I got for the UK market around 4 to 5 years ago.

NB. Most customers prefer to have no conference warn tone (NO). However, if INTU is set to YES, warn tone may result in corruption of coincident MF4 tones.

Hardware compatibility
The following table shows Option 11C and CS software daughterboards & the software releases that they are compatible with. New orders will receive the new NTTK25BA software daughterboard.

Each Expansion cabinet: NTDK20AB-GA SSC + NTDK19BA SSC Memory Upgrade Kit (32Mb)
NTDK20HA
• Media Gateway 1000E in CS 1000E systems
NTDK20GA SSC + NTDK19BA SSC Memory Upgrade Kit (32Mb)
NTDK20HA

An existing Option 11C system equipped with a controller card NTDK20AB can be upgraded to an NTDK20CA with a field upgrade kit NTDK19AA.
A system upgrading to Release 25 or Succession 3 must replace its NTDK21 (32 MB) or NTDK81 (40 MB) based software daughterboard, with an NTTK13AA (48 MB) or NTTK25AA daughterboard. Please ensure that you have upgraded the bootcode on the SSC prior to upgrading the software daughterboard. To verify the size of the software daughterboard and for installation instructions, refer to NTP upgrade manual Chapter 9.
The Succession Branch Office Call Server requires a 48MB Total Memory (32 MB Program Store and 16 MB CDrive space) in order to run Succession 3.0 Software.
