qamChannelFrequency

Module: SCTE-HMS-QAM-MIB

OID (symbolic): SCTE-HMS-QAM-MIB::qamChannelFrequency

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5591.1.11.5.3.1.1.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Gauge

Access: read-only

Description: The center frequency of the QAM channel.

What is qamChannelFrequency?

This read-only gauge reports the center frequency, in Hertz, of a QAM output channel. Admins use this to verify a channel is transmitting on its intended RF frequency within the cable plant's spectrum plan. For example, seeing a value of 501000000 (501 MHz) confirms that channel is centered where the plant's channel plan expects it.

Examples

Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):

snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5591.1.11.5.3.1.1.1.1.1
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> SCTE-HMS-QAM-MIB::qamChannelFrequency

Get a specific instance (index 1):

snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.4.1.5591.1.11.5.3.1.1.1.1.1.1
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> SCTE-HMS-QAM-MIB::qamChannelFrequency.1

SNMPv3 example:

snmpget -v3 -l authPriv -u snmpv3-user -a SHA -A "AuthPassword1" -x AES -X "PrivPassword1" <target> qamChannelFrequency.1
