It should say:

           |<---------------- Emulated Service ----------------->|

Notes:

The right-hand end of the Emulated Service should be aligned with the provider-facing AC port on CE2 and not placed in the middle of CE2.
Although this may appear to be a minor editorial issue, the technical consequences are significant.
