Figure 2. Two Suite K-Frame System
Customer Supplied Ethernet Routers and Switches
Existing facility Ethernet switches can be used in conjunction with a
K-Frame system. If connecting to a network area outside that used by the
K-Frame system, use of an appropriately configured Ethernet Router is
strongly advised. This reduces network traffic on the K-Frame network and
keeps it isolated. Any Ethernet switches added specifically for use with the
K-Frame system should be 1000 Mbps capable for the most efficient opera-
tion (see
Table 1 ).
