The Ktown2 board, which is physically located between the two pipes, provides two
Crosstown2 (Xtown2) connections; the top Xtown2 connector is for the right pipe and the
bottom Xtown2 connector is for the left pipe (see Figure 13-5). The Xtown2 connectors
connect to the XIO port of an IX-, PX-, X-, or N-brick.
Each G-brick requires one Ktown2 board so that the G-brick can convert the data it
receives from the host processors to differential signal levels.
