Modem SNR Calculation
Modem SNR calculation between 12U and 24U CAM has some variation, as the table below shows:
Table 49. SNR Calculations for Modem SNR
Calculation is based on IUC4 (station maintenance)
reading only.
Burst counts threshold is 5 packets
CLI show cable modem noise
MIBs attribute:
docsIf3CmtsCmUsStatusSignalNoise
MIB attribute is based on the primary flow SNR.
Calculation is based on all IUCs except IUC1 and
IUC3.
Burst counts threshold is 50 packets
CLI show cable modem noise
MIBs attribute:
docsIf3CmtsCmUsStatusSignalNoise
MIB attribute is based on the primary flow SNR.
Calculation is based on all IUCs except IUC1 and IUC3.
