The top part of the CH/BC enclosure is painted black and includes a hooded section to protect the connectors and controls. The base is painted metallic silver and also forms the front and rear panels. The CH/BC enclosure comes in eight sizes ranging from 2.40" x 4.64" x 1.89" to 8.779" x 4.64" x 3.31".
