Benefits of technology

The present invention is a device that connects to a server's connection device. It has a side plate and a casing with a movable pillar that guides a gold-plated terminal to the server's port for signal transmission. The device also has a cable fixed in the casing with a gold-plated terminal. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a more reliable and efficient connection between the server and external devices, ensuring signal stability and reliable transmission.

Problems solved by technology

However, request for the hot plugging function of the mother board and the complicated wiring layout for electrical components in the limited space of the motherboard cause a high design and manufacturing cost of the server.
However, the aforesaid connection design not only causes a time-consuming and strenuous assembly process, but also results in a long signal transmission path since the printed wiring on the motherboard needs to pass through the middle plane, so that the high speed signal transmission between the motherboard and the hard disk drive could be attenuated easily and influenced by other signal transmission on the middle plane.

Embodiment Construction

[0017]Please refer to FIG. 1, which is a diagram of a server 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the server 10 includes at least one connection device 12, at least one cable limiting device 14, and at least one switchable device 16 (one shown in FIG. 1, but not limited thereto). The switchable device 16 is briefly depicted by dotted lines in FIG. 1. There are two connection devices 12 and two cable limiting devices 14 shown in FIG. 1, but not limited thereto. More detailed description for the connection device 12, the cable limiting device 14 and the switchable device 16 located at a side of the sever 10 in FIG. 1 is provided as follows. As for the related description for the connection device 12, the cable limiting device 14 and the switchable device 16 located at another side of the sever 10 in FIG. 1, it could be reasoned by analogy and omitted herein.

[0018]Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4. FIG. 2 is a partial enlarged dia...

Abstract

A cable limiting device is for connecting to a connection device of a server. The connection device includes a motherboard, a bridgeboard, and a port disposed on the bridgeboard and coupled to the motherboard. The cable limiting device includes a side plate having a longitudinal opening and a transverse slot communicated with each other, a casing, and a cable fixed in the casing. A pillar of the casing passes through the longitudinal opening to be slidably disposed through the transverse slot and be movable relative to the transverse slot for making the casing away from or close to the side plate. When the cable is connected to the port, the casing is away from or close to the side plate with movement of the pillar in the transverse slot for guiding a gold-plated terminal of the cable to be inserted into the port and establishing signal transmission via the bridgeboard.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a cable limiting device and a server thereof, and more specifically, to a cable limiting device for establishing high speed signal transmission between a motherboard and a switchable device via connection among a first cable coupled to the motherboard, a bridgeboard spaced from the motherboard, and a second cable coupled to the switchable device and a server thereof.[0003]2. Description of the Prior Art[0004]With development of electronic technology, a server has been widely used as an information processing system. The server usually includes a motherboard, a power supply, disk drives (e.g. hard disk drive or optical disk drive) and so on. Since the server has developed many functions and has become smaller and smaller in practical application, there are more and more motherboards installed in the server. However, request for the hot plugging function of the mother board and the complic...
