According to a report I saw from the NSS, they also deployed 4  CubeSats.
Not a useful orbit for us, but a sign of good things to  come.

Hi Alan.
 
If they waited until the second stage had been removed from LEO, those  
cubesats would have had an apogee of 11,000km
 
A very nice orbit......if it could be circularised to avoid the radiation  
belts.
 
Thanks
