Promptlink's Network NoiseHawk solves the ongoing problem of pinpointing network noise in the cable network. This problem has plagued DOCSIS HFC Networks for years, with limited tools available to find the problem area of the network. Whether it is a bad amplifier, bad tap or coupler, finding such issues usually involves many expensive hours spent driving around and searching for the damaged piece of equipment.
Current competitive solutions make you invest in expensive hardware to deploy in cable headends, and do not truly localize the upstream noise or ingress source. Promptlink Network NoiseHawk utilizes a Patent-Pending algorithm to analyze multiple sources of data, such as PNM and SNMP polling data, collected by Promptlink's Cable Plant Monitoring (CPM), to pinpoint the source of the cable ingress as finely as to a specific amplifier. Our broadband network noise diagnostic software for HFC cable plants is perfect for what you need in pinpointing the problem.
