A method of determining signal quality in a cable network comprises the steps of: providing a network model (1) comprising an interconnection model (2) and component models (3), providing an input signal (IS), determining an output signal (OS) using the input signal and the network model, and determining the signal quality from the input signal (IS) and the output signal (OS). The input signal (IS) comprises multiple constituent signal components, each signal component representing a class of input signals. The step of determining the output signal involves determining intermodulations of the constituent signal components by effecting frequency domain convolutions of the spectra of the constituent signal components.
