Description: This attribute represents the minimum required MER value for this Modulation Order. It is used in determining the SNR Margin for the Candidate Downstream Profile.

What is docsPnmCmDsOfdmReqMerQam256?

The minimum MER, in quarter-dB (default 108, i.e. 27 dB), required for 256-QAM subcarriers, used when computing SNR margin for a candidate downstream profile. Part of the per-modulation-order table letting the SNR-margin calculation scale its requirement to each subcarrier's actual bit-loading.
