Radio Link and Local Drop And Insert Capacity
At the bottom of the Cross Connections page, the capacity pane displays the Radio and Local drop and
insert capacities for both the local and remote terminals.
The Radio Capacity field shows the available radio link capacity (6032 kbit/s shown) and the shaded bar
graph shows the capacity used for cross connections over the radio link (2600 kbit/s) between the
terminals as a percentage of the total capacity of the radio link (30 % used).
The total capacity of the radio link is determined by the channel size and the modulation type of the radio
link.
The Local Capacity field shows the available capacity for local or drop and insert cross connections (52392
kbit/s shown) and the shaded bar graph shows the capacity used for local cross connections (4512 kbit/s)
as a percentage of the total local capacity (7 % used).
The total local capacity is 65536 kbit/s minus the used radio capacity.
Tool tip messages show the breakdown of the radio and local capacity usage:
The following is an example of the messages shown:
Radio Capacity
Radio Bandwidth Usage (over the air)
8632 kbit/s total
2600 kbit/s used (30%)
6032 kbit/s free
Local Capacity
Local capacity usage (for connecting ports on the same terminal)
65536 kbit/s total
8632 kbit/s reserved for radio (13%)
4512 kbit/s used for local (7%)
52392 kbit/s free
Tip: On a screen set to 1024 by 768 resolution, this capacity information may be obscured by the task bar
if the Windows task bar is docked at the bottom of the screen. To view the capacity pane clearly, either
shift the task bar to another screen edge, make it auto-hide, or increase the screen resolution.
