Downstream HEC Errors
Output Power
is the transmit power level, measured in dBm.
Noise Margin
is the amount of increased noise that can be tolerated while maintaining the designated
BER (bit error rate).
Attenuation
is the difference in dB between the signal power level received and a reference transmitted
signal power level. In other words,
Attenuation
is the decrease in magnitude of a communications signal
between the transmitter and the receiver, measured in dB.
Bits per Frame
is the number of bits in a frame.
CRC Errors
is the number of CRC errors detected.
FEC Errors
is the number of FEC errors detected.
HEC Errors
is the number of HEC errors detected.
Startup Attempts
is the number of times the physical layer has activated.
An example log of the physical layer statistics event is shown in the File Format section below.
