What is pbcCmtsIfUpstreamMER?

This read-only value reports the upstream channel's modulation error ratio (MER) in tenths of a dB, a measure of signal quality — higher values mean a cleaner signal. An admin uses a dropping MER on a channel as an early warning of plant noise or ingress before it causes modem flaps.
