Ethernet Frame

At a later stage, the TDMoIP frame becomes a part of the standard Ethernet frame, which also includes a UDP header, IP header and MAC. The Ethernet frames are forwarded to the Ethernet switch, which sends them to one of the main links: 10/100BaseT or E1/T1. Figure 1-7illustrates the structure of the Vmux-2100 Ethernet frame. Table 1-1describes the fields of the Vmux-2100 Ethernet frame.
