cable downstream modulation
To set the modulation rate for a downstream port on a cable modem card, use the cable downstream
modulation cable interface configuration command:
cable downstream modulation {64qam | 256qam}
Syntax Description
Default
64qam
Command Mode
Cable interface configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Downstream modulation defines the modulation type used for downstream traffic. Specifying the
symbol rate indirectly influences the interface speed; at 64qam, the interface speed is
6xx bits/second. Specifying 256qam sets the interface speed to 8xx bits/second.
Example
The following example sets the downstream modulation:
Router(config)# interface cable 6/0
Router(config-if)# cable downstream modulation 256qam
64qam Modulation is 6 bits per downstream symbol rate.
256qam Modulation is 8 bits per downstream symbol rate.
