 The case is comprised of a plastic upper case and plastic tray. The upper case has a distinctive concave dish that runs horizontally, presumably there either for aesthetics or for storage. The same dish is present on the case of the ANSI Leading Edge DC-3014. The upper case is secured to the lower case with several screws, all screw sockets are made of metal. The board is a case mount (in other words, the PCB and mounting plate are mounted to the top case, rather than the tray).
-The coiled Sumitomo cable runs out of the left side of the board, and uses a 5P DIN interface. However, unlike many other XT boards, it makes use of the reset pin and will typically not work with most XT converters (unless if they are specifically marketed as working with them). Nevertheless, both internal and external converters exist for the DC-2014.
