Full Band Capture Correlation

Nimble Full Band Capture Correlation is a powerful tool that can help cable operators quickly and accurately identify the root cause of signal impairments. By correlating data from multiple sources, including modems and other network devices, Nimble This can help operators distinguish between impairments that are caused by issues in the OSP (outside plant) versus those that are caused by in-home issues.

For example, if a group of modems in a particular area are all experiencing the same impairment, Nimble can identify that the issue is likely caused by an OSP problem, such as a damaged cable or faulty amplifier. On the other hand, if only one or a few modems are experiencing the issue, it may be caused by an in-home issue, such as a faulty splitter or loose connector.

By using Nimble Full Band Capture Correlation, cable operators can avoid unnecessary truck rolls to address in-home issues that are actually caused by problems in the OSP. This can save time and money, while also improving the quality of experience for end-users.

• Identify OSP impaired modems vs in-home modems​
• Correlate modems having the same OSP impairment​
• Identify modems having in-home impairments​
• Don’t waste truck rolls to in-home issues that are OSP issues

Full Band Capture

Full band capture is a technique used in cable networks to analyze the entire frequency spectrum of the network in a single pass, which allows network operators to quickly identify and diagnose signal quality issues.

With full band capture, a device known as a spectrum analyzer is used to capture and record the entire frequency spectrum of the network in real time. This information is then analyzed using specialized software, which can identify potential issues such as signal noise, distortion, or interference. By analyzing the entire frequency spectrum, network operators can quickly identify the source of the issue and take appropriate corrective action.

Full band capture is particularly useful in cable networks that use high frequency ranges, as these networks can be more susceptible to signal quality issues. By analyzing the entire frequency spectrum, network operators can identify issues that might not be visible using traditional signal testing methods.

Some key benefits of full band capture include:

1. Faster diagnosis: With full band capture, network operators can quickly identify and diagnose signal quality issues, which can help minimize downtime and reduce the need for time-consuming and costly manual testing.
2. More accurate results: By analyzing the entire frequency spectrum, full band capture can provide more accurate and comprehensive results than traditional testing methods.
3. Improved network performance: By identifying and addressing signal quality issues, full band capture can help improve network performance and ensure that users receive the best possible service.

Overall, full band capture is a valuable tool for cable network operators, as it allows them to quickly and accurately diagnose signal quality issues, which can help improve network performance and customer satisfaction.
