The major difference between the system box design and the drawer design is
that the global port is on the drawer backplane whereas in the system box
global ports are distinct modules. See Section 1.17 for information on the
system box global port.
Another difference is the orientation of the I/O riser ports. In the drawer the
port is perpendicular to the backplane whereas in the system box the port is
parallel to the backplane. See Sections 1.14.1 and 1.14.2 for descriptions of I/O
riser modules for the system box and the drawer-based systems.
