A communication system is comprised of two or more circuit pack modules mounted onto a mounting apparatus. Each circuit module includes a plastic housing which holds a circuit board mounted therein. An equipment cabinet is formed by mounting a circuit module at each end of the mounting apparatus and utilizing a surface of each circuit module, respectively, as a side of the cabinet. A top panel of the cabinet mounts to the mounting apparatus and circuit modules and covers the circuit modules and any space therebetween. A front panel mounts to the top panel and circuit modules and serves as the front cover of the cabinet.
