Cable operator networks are large expansive networks that involve hundreds if not thousands of miles ofcoaxial or fiber cable powered by power supplies in the outside plant and connecting customers to criticalinfrastructure facilities such as hubs, headends, data centers, regional, and national distributiondatacenters. In these facilities is a vast array of equipment responsible for the production and support ofthe cable operator?s products and services such as voice, video, data, home automation and security, andWi-Fi. The importance of powering all of these devices in the critical facilities is ever increasing as thecustomer expectation is for 100% availability due to the critical nature of the services being provided tobusiness and residential customers. Standard methodologies are needed to measure the energyconsumption for the various network element classes as well as measuring the density of hardware tomeet the needs of optimizing critical space.
This document covers the general test procedures that are common to all equipment types and specifiesthe environmental conditions for evaluating cable equipment energy efficiency metrics. Expectations ofmeasurement equipment as well as guidelines on the recording of results are also covered. This standardwill be included as a normative reference in each supplemental standard in the series covering metrics andspecific test procedures for the various equipment types.
The requirements in this document are applicable to all equipment types unless superseded by thatequipment type?s supplemental SCTE standard.
