The p5-590 and p5-595 are designed with dual bulk power controllers (BPC).
Each bulk power controller BPC) has two sides, commonly referred to as A and B
sides. Additionally, there are four 10/100 Ethernet hub ports on the BPC that
connect to various system components. This connectivity scheme is presented in
Table 7-2. Figure 7-2 on page 174 illustrates the available connectors on each
bulk power controller (BPC).
Figure 7-3 on page 174 provides a full illustration of the service processor card,
clock oscillator, and bulk power controller (BPC) integration.
