About link resources

Link resources shows the mapping of how the bandwidth over the connecting fibres is distributed. Whenever a resource is being sent from one unit to the other, it will reserve a transmitting block (TX) and receiving block (RX) in both directions. These blocks are then reserved for this traffic alone. They will even remain locked when no transfer is happening or the resource is no longer used or active.

Advanced users can customise or release all reserved blocks. Meaning they can define which transmitter sends what resource and which receiver accepts what resource. This provides more flexibility as the user can specify only one direction and free up blocks that are reserved for things that are no longer relevant.

However, mistakes in mapping linked resources will result in unexpected behavior and images being lost. Editing is reserved for advanced users only for this reason.

Note: Request additional training from Barco before attempting to edit linked resources.
