On the zEC12, the install team must connect the Ethernet adapters for any HMC(s) into an Ethernet
switch. This switch can then be connected to J01 and J02 on the Bulk Power Hubs. (See Figure 18.)

Figure 18. Two-switch configuration
This configuration is required because the Support Elements have no external connection to the
HMCs, and the Support Elements communicate only through the Bulk Power Hubs.
Notes:
1. Only Ethernet switches can connect to the customer ports J01 and J02 on the Bulk Power Hubs.
2. Never connect an HMC directly to J01 and J02 on the Bulk Power Hubs.
3. Never connect customer LANs to any ports other than J01 and J02 on the Bulk Power Hubs.
4. Customer LAN 1 should be plugged into J02 on the Bulk Power Hubs. Customer LAN 2 should be
plugged into J01 on the Bulk Power Hubs.
