Downstream

NOTE:

The downstream signal is the signal transmitted to the BVW-3653.

Frequency to Tune to

This displays the current center frequency in Hertz (Hz)

over which data is transmitted to the BVW-3653 over the

CATV

interface. This is the frequency to which the BVW-

3653 is locked in; it will only scan for another frequency if

this frequency becomes unavailable.

If you want the BVW-3653 to attempt to connect at a

different frequency, enter it in the field and click

Apply

NOTE:

Do not change the frequency unless you have a

good reason to do so.

Scanning Start

Frequency

This displays the frequency in Hertz (Hz) at which the

BVW-3653 begins scanning for a connection over the

CATV

interface (if a frequency is not already locked in).

Channel Frequency

This displays the actual frequency of each downstream

data channel to which the BVW-3653 is connected.

Modulation

This displays the type of modulation that each

downstream channel uses. Possible modulation types

This displays the power of the signal of each

downstream data channel to which the BVW-3653 is

connected, in dBmV (decibels above/below 1 millivolt).

Signal Noise Ratio

This displays the Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) of each

downstream data channel to which the BVW-3653 is

connected, in dB (decibels).

Upstream

NOTE:

The upstream signal is the signal transmitted from the BVW-3653.

Channel ID

This displays the ID number of each channel on which

the upstream signal is transmitted.
