To the best of my knowledge, the "MC" stands for "Mass Communication".
The 1MC is considered the "root" because it uses every single speaker hooked up to the MC bus.

After that, I don't know how it breaks down. I was never ship's company -- didn't even *look* at a Blue Jacket's manual.:rotfl:
I do know that the total number of subsystems depends on the size and complexity of the boat. Aircraft carriers probably have about 100, subs probably have 20.
