docsIfExt2CmMscStatusEffectivePower

Module: DOCS-IFEXT2-MIB

OID (symbolic): DOCS-IFEXT2-MIB::docsIfExt2CmMscStatusEffectivePower

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4491.2.1.5.1.2.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: TenthdBmV

Access: read-only

Description: Indicates the Effective Transmit Power of the CM. This is the power that would result hypothetically if, in a spreader-on frame, the CM were to transmit on all active codes with 64QAM modulation. This object should be equal to docsIfCmStatusTxPower when docsIfExt2CmMscStatusState is not active(3).

What is docsIfExt2CmMscStatusEffectivePower?

This value, in tenths of a dBmV, reports the hypothetical transmit power a cable modem would use if it transmitted on all active codes with 64QAM modulation in a spreader-on frame, and equals docsIfCmStatusTxPower when MSC is inactive. An admin compares it to the modem's normal transmit power to understand how MSC affects its effective upstream power budget. A value noticeably different from docsIfCmStatusTxPower signals the modem is actively adjusting power under MSC.
