What Is OMNI-gx2PSDC-MIB?

This MIB manages the Cisco (originally Scientific-Atlanta) GX2 PSDC DC power supply module, a field-replaceable power unit used in GX2-series HFC optical nodes in cable broadband access networks. No sample objects were provided in this batch, but power-supply MIBs in this OMNI family typically expose module presence, input/output voltage or current readings, and a power supply health/fault status. Its purpose is direct hardware status monitoring: detecting a failing or degraded DC power supply in an optical node before it causes a node outage, particularly important since many nodes rely on redundant power supplies to stay up during a single-unit failure. It belongs to Cisco/Scientific-Atlanta's proprietary GX2 optical node MIB family rather than any IETF standard, and complements sibling module MIBs (e.g., receiver/expansion cards) covering the rest of the node. It is deployed in cable operator HFC networks on GX2 optical nodes powered by DC supplies, typically in outside-plant cabinets. Engineers can download the OMNI-gx2PSDC-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in OMNI-gx2PSDC-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • Cisco/Scientific-Atlanta GX2 HFC optical node (PSDC power supply module)
  • General Instrument/Motorola OmniStar GX2 HFC headend equipment

Monitoring Examples

An operator would poll the PSDC module's presence and fault-status objects (per the OMNI-gx2 module pattern) to confirm the DC power supply is installed and healthy, and would check any output voltage/current objects for values outside the expected range. A reported fault or missing-module status on a PSDC unit in a node with only one operating supply would be treated as an urgent dispatch since it removes power redundancy. Because no object names were available in this batch, exact object names cannot be confirmed and this description reflects the module's known general purpose.

What Can Be Monitored

  • power supply presence
  • power supply fault status
  • output voltage/current
