Which look better?
Hi,
I am asking for a friend.
Which looks better, the before or after?
Thanks for looking at my post and I’ll look forward to the responses.

Re: Which look better?
I think the general rule is... Don't get too hung up on them if it's working.
The levels up a touch, the SNR down a touch.
Just looked at mine, all around the -4 and 37.
If I recall, the target level is 0dB +/- 3, +/- 6 no great issue.
Since I have a 3dB forward path attenuator on mine, I'll remove it after checking a few more times.

Re: Which look better?
the target on the downstream is as close to 0 as possible and -7 to +10 is acceptable. Bearing that in mind I would prefer the before because the after is too close for comfort. The upstream on the before is also perfect. Mine has been 45 for over a decade.

Re: Which look better?
Do these variances really have an impact on speed or QoS though?

Re: Which look better?
As long as they are within spec no, the trick is keeping them that way. I would rather have a ds channel on -3 than +7.

Mine go from 0 to +10 always spread across the 24 channels, been told it is ok but I would prefer if they are even across the range.
