Physical Description

The Universal 71632 utilizes a slim off-white plastic enclosure containing six grounded outlets arranged in a single row.

A red rocker-style RESET/OFF power switch and a protection-status indicator are located near the cord-entry point. The enclosure design shares several styling cues with the Universal 71637, including the raised control section and red indicator lens.

Unlike the Universal 71637, the VG307 does not incorporate telephone-line surge protection circuitry or RJ11 connectors.

The documented example exhibits a broken screw-mount post near the power-cord entry point. Additional details are documented in the teardown section.
