The 860 DSPi TraffiControl option allows users to view interference underneath upstream cable modem signals, like ingress and impulse noise, that are difficult to see with standard spectrum analyzers. It displays the current live noise, peak noise levels, and traffic traces over an 8 MHz frequency span centered on the cable modem channel. This helps technicians troubleshoot problems by seeing interference hidden by normal traffic signals. The option is available for existing 860 owners through a firmware update and purchase of an activation key code.
