Abstract :
The conventional methods of troubleshooting CATV trunk plant and monitoring system levels have to date been less than optimum; requiring a considerable amount of field testing and dependence on subscriber trouble reports. The need therefore exists for an automated status monitoring system on a large CATV system to readily pinpoint fault conditions and maintain a continuous and accurate record of transmission performance.
