again cut in half, and this process continues until a clean upstream is found or the bandwidth is<br />

reduced to the minimum channel width that has been configured using the cable upstream<br />

channel-width command.<br />

Allowable DOCSIS channel widths are 3.2 MHz, 1.6 MHz, 800 KHz, 400 KHz, and 200 KHz. If the<br />

channel width drops to 200 KHz, but the noise still exceeds the SNR threshold, the CMs go offline.<br />

Note The default specifies only a single channel width of 1.6 MHz. If this is not changed to<br />

specify a range of allowable channel widths (using the cable upstream channel-width<br />

command), the <strong>Cisco</strong> uBR-MC16S does not attempt to change the channel width.<br />

To use the Dynamic Upstream Modulation feature, you must first create two modulation profiles (using<br />

the cable modulation-profile command) and assign them to the upstream (using the cable upstream<br />

modulation-profile command).<br />

Examples The following example shows that when ingress noise on the upstream exceeds the threshold allowed for<br />

the primary modulation profile, the <strong>Cisco</strong> uBR-MC16S line card should first switch to the secondary<br />

modulation profile, then try frequency hopping, and if that fails to correct problem, to finally try<br />

narrowing the channel width:<br />

Router(config)# interface cable 3/0<br />

Router(config-if)# cable upstream 0 hop-priority modulation frequency channel-width<br />

Router(config-if)# exit<br />

Router(config)#<br />
