What is cienaCesPmBasicOtuCurrBinQAvgOtu?

This reports the average Q-factor for this OTU signal over the bin. Because this reading comes from the still-filling, live 15-minute bin for this OTU signal, this average is the headline optical-margin figure engineers trend over weeks to catch slow degradation on this specific signal -- an aging laser, a dirty connector, growing PMD -- long before FEC starts failing outright. For example, a Q-factor average sliding from 10 dB to 8 dB on this OTU signal over several months, while still error-free today, is exactly the slow-decline pattern that justifies scheduling a connector clean or amplifier check proactively, so far within this still-open 15-minute interval.
