Connector limiting device and server thereof

Abstract

A connector limiting device is used for docking with a connector of a server. The connector includes a main board, a bridging board and a signal transmission port arranged in the bridging board and electrically connected to the main board. The connector limiting device includes a side board with a longitudinal opening and a transverse guide groove communicating with each other, an accommodation frame and a signal transmission line fixed in the accommodation frame. A limiting guide post is formed in a protruding manner on the accommodation frame facing the side board and the limiting guide post passes through the longitudinal opening and is arranged through the transverse guide groove in a sliding manner and can move relative to the transverse guide groove so as to enable the accommodation frame to get close to or get away from the side board relatively. When A signal transmission line is docked with the signal transmission port, the accommodation frame gets close to or get away from the side board relatively along with the movement of the limiting guide post in the transverse guide groove, so as to guide a connecting finger connector of the signal transmission line to plug into the signal transmission port and to establish signal transmission via the bridging board.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a connector limiting device and its server, in particular to a first signal transmission line electrically connected to a motherboard, a bridge board provided separately from the motherboard, and a second signal transmission line electrically connected to a replaceable device The connection is designed to establish the connector limit device and its server for high-speed signal transmission between the motherboard and the removable device. Background technique [0002] With the advancement of electronic technology, servers have become an information processing system widely used in the industry. Servers usually include main components such as motherboards, power supplies, various types of disk drives (such as hard disks, optical drives), etc. Due to the increasing demand for server functions and the increasing miniaturization of the server, it is necessary to install multiple motherboards in the same chassis. There are more...

Problems solved by technology

Servers usually include main components such as main boards, power supplies, various disk drives (such as hard disks, optical drives), etc. Due to the increasing demand for server functions and the increasing miniaturization of the volume, installing multiple main boards in the same case There are more and more demands, and the volume of each motherboard itself is getting smaller and smaller. On the one hand, it is required to realize the hot insertion of the motherboard, and on the other hand, it is required to arrange more parts on the motherboard in a limited space, so that the server design and Manufacturing costs remain high

In addition, the main board usually utilizes its own board-to-board connector to be plugged into the middle plane and is electrically connected to the hard disk of the server through the transmission port on the middle plane and the connection of the cable. Not only will it cause a time-consuming and labor-intensive assembly process, but it will also cause the high-speed signal transmission between the motherboard and the hard disk to be affected by the long transmission path that needs to pass through the middle bridge board and be easily affected by other transmission signals on the middle bridge board. excessive distortion
