About This Manual This manual contains the instructions needed to install the Upstream Quad Receiver used in the hybrid fiber/coax (HFC) access platform. Depending on the system design, the HFC access platform (also referred to as “the system”) can deliver various video, telephony, data, and special services over a network consisting of fiber optic and coaxial cables deployed in the local subscriber loop. Note: The HFC access platform components and capabilities will become available in various releases.
Admonishments Important safety admonishments are used throughout this manual to warn of possible hazards to persons or equipment. An admonishment identifies a possible hazard and then explains what may happen if the hazard is not avoided. The admonishments — in the form of Dangers, Warnings, and Cautions — must be followed at all times. These warnings are listed in descending order of severity of injury or damage and likelihood of occurrence.
