PWB 
printed wiring board. 
 
QAM 
quadrature amplitude modulation. A phase modulation technique for representing digital 
information and transmitting that data with minimal bandwidth. Both phase and amplitude 
of carrier waves are altered to represent the binary code. By manipulating two factors, more 
discrete digital states are possible and therefore larger binary schemes can be represented. 
 
RCVR 
receiver. 
 
reverse path 
Signal flow direction toward the headend. 
 
RF 
radio frequency. The frequency in the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is above 
the audio frequencies and below the infrared frequencies, used in radio transmission systems. 
 
RFI 
radio frequency interference. 
 
RMA 
return material authorization. A form used to return products. 
 
router 
A data communications device which examines a packet and routes the packet to an output 
port appropriate to the packet destination. On the Internet, a router is a device or, in some 
cases, software in a computer that determines the next network point to which a packet 
should be forwarded toward its destination. The router is connected to at least two networks 
and decides which way to send each information packet based on the router’s current 
understanding of the state of the networks it is connected to. A router creates or maintains a 
table of the available routes and their conditions and uses this information along with 
distance and cost algorithms to determine the best route for a given packet.  
 
RX 
receive or receiver. 
 
S/N or SNR 
signal-to-noise ratio. The ratio, in decibels, of the maximum peak-to-peak voltage of the video
