Simplified installation
DOCSIS cable modem installation is
simplified for even the novice installer.
Not just one, but multiple downstream
DOCSIS carriers can be tested in a
single, automated cable modem test.
Immediate Pass/Fail message is dis-
played. Details of failed parameter(s)
are noted in the autotest results.
Fast ingress identification
Checking the install for ingress is easy
with a before and after approach that
uses the DSAM upstream spectrum
display. Unwanted carriers can be
quickly located and measured (center
frequency, level and graphical view).
Interference from intermittent sources
can be captured with the peak hold
feature. For the greatest amount of
detail a 10 MHz zoom can be used at
the marker position.
The cable modem autotest function provides an
immediate Pass/Fail message
The DSAM upstream spectrum display makes
identifying ingress quick and easy
