I see this all the time with low-end Cisco ISR products (2... and 3... routers) since CIsco insist on having a "pretty" plastic fascia with their logo, model number, power LED etc. on the unuseful side. Less experienced installers (being generous with my terminology) assume this is therefore the "front" and mount it facing on the front rails, leaving the connector side buried half way into the rack where only a proctologist can reach the plugs. I use this as a gauge of experience in interviews for engineers... "Here's a new router and here's the rack mount ears. Show me where they go." Aled
