This object controls TLV 46.8.2, an offset from the reference channel, to set the Ranging Offset of the burst transmission for the new channel so that bursts arrive at the expected mini-slots time at the CMTS. The units are (1/10.24MHz) = 97.65625 ns. A negative value implies the Ranging Offset is to be decreased, resulting in later times of transmission at the CM. The CMTS MUST include this TLV within the TCC when the Upstream Channel Action is Add or Replace and Initialization Technique has a value of 2, 3 or 4.
