Network Tracker Plus

• Digital QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation) constellation diagram
• Downstream micro-reflection analysis
• CheetahXD GIS mapping application for location tracking of each Network Tracker
• Configurable alarm and measurement parameters coupled with CheetahXD and CheetahLynx

The Cheetah Network Tracker Plus is a revolutionary device that allows a CATV operator to install them at any mission critical or end of line location in a HFC broadband network. The Network Tracker Plus can be creatively used to improve network quality & reliability, to enable a quality assurance program, and to achieve workforce automation. Network Tracker Plus allows the CATV operator to complete on-demand or scheduled system analysis at any location from the office to the consumer. 

• Network Tracker Plus units can be installed at end of line locations to automate the semi-annual FCC proof of performance test process.
• Network Tracker Plus can be used as a 24-hour monitor for difficult customer network or content troubleshooting issues.
• CATV operators can use Network Tracker Plus as a workforce quality assurance tool installed beyond a work area to eliminate inadvertent workforce caused outages.
• Network Tracker Plus installed at key system health points, such as longest coaxial feeder cable, longest optical link, fiber service areas, and other locations can provide long-term system analysis and scorecards.
• Using Network Tracker Plus PoE (Power over Ethernet) ports for a wide range of institutional network purposes. Close circuit television networks, wireless access points, emergency call boxes are just some of the devices that can be integrated from to the PoE ports.
