>From Sun specifically, the P1 and P2 are bussed differently. It's
documented in the backplane manuals.
For instance:
<https://bitsavers.org/pdf/sun/sun2/800-1184-01_2-120_Backplane_Engr_Sep84.pdf>
has drawings for the 9 and 15-slots backplane (2/120 and 2/170), and
some schematics.
P1 is fully busses, P2 is broken in subsection.

Cordially,
