Abstract:
The present disclosure provides methods and systems for a network interface device including an entry port connected to a cable television (CATV) network. A noise suppressor is provided that improves the detection and differentiation between ingress noise and valid upstream signals. The noise suppressor can gate the upstream path logically and dynamically to pass valid upstream signals, while blocking ingress noise form the CATV network.

Claim (Index 2):
The network interface device of  claim 1 , wherein the controller is further configured to:\n determine an instantaneous power level of a potential signal in the upstream path; determine a continuous power level of the potential signal in the upstream path; determine that the upstream signal is present in the upstream path based on the continuous power level of the potential signal or the instantaneous power level of the potential signal.
