1 Overview
TheADS system is an integrated hardware device. This chapter gives a brief account of ADS
devices.
1.1 Appearance
This section details the appearance, including front and rear panels, of ADS devices.
The interface model or quantity of actual products may slightly vary with the batch or
model.
1.1.1 ADS NX3 2000 Series and NX5 4000/6000 Series
ADS NX3 2000 series, NX5 4000 series, and NX5 6000 series use the same hardware
platform, and therefore have the same appearance and hardware specifications. This document
uses ADS NX5-4020 as an example to describe their appearance.
Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2 show the front and rear panels of ADS NX5-4020 respectively.
