qamChannelContWaveMode
Module: SCTE-HMS-QAM-MIB
OID (symbolic): SCTE-HMS-QAM-MIB::qamChannelContWaveMode
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5591.1.11.5.3.1.1.1.1.7
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-only
Description: Indicates whether Continuous Wave mode is enabled or not for output.
What is qamChannelContWaveMode?
This read-only enumerated object reports whether Continuous Wave (CW) output mode is on(2) or off(1) for a QAM channel. Admins check this because CW mode outputs an unmodulated carrier used for plant testing and alignment rather than carrying actual service data. For example, finding a channel unexpectedly showing cwmOn(2) would explain why that channel appears to be transmitting a carrier but isn't delivering any actual video or data service.
