Chassis Views
The CSG1300 series and CSG1500 series appliances are physically identical.
The front panel is the side of the appliance with the SIM slots, LEDs for status and power, soft reset button, and various connectors and ports. It also has integrated rack-mount ears for installation in standard 19-inch racks. This is the side that is visible when you install the appliance in an office environment.
The rear panel has the power supply units, ground contact, and cooling fans. This is the side that is visible when you mount the appliance in a 19-inch rack.
Figure 1 and Figure 2 show the front and rear panels of a CSG1500 series appliance.
