More from the least trusted source of information:

The C710 designed into the LASI chip operates from a fixed frequency
clock of 40Mhz.

Page: 3, Section: Phase-Locked Loop Clock Generators, Paragraph: 1

All K-class systems have at least 1 HP-HSC bus, it runs at 32Mhz.
In addition the K-400 and K-410 may have an additional HP-HSC bus
which runs at 40Mhz.
