This object reports the peak rate of dropped calls per second observed at any point during the last one minute. An admin uses this to catch the worst moment of call dropping within the minute, which the averaged cuspAvgDroppedCPSOneMin figure might otherwise understate. A high cuspMaxDroppedCPSOneMin alongside a low cuspAvgDroppedCPSOneMin would tell the admin the system had one brief severe drop event rather than a steady ongoing problem.
