DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The preferred embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present application can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, and the scope of protection of the present application can be more clearly defined.

[0038] Embodiment One

[0039] Referring to the accompanying drawings Figure 1 And 2 As shown in the drawings, the closed modular distribution frame in this embodiment includes a distribution frame body 1, the distribution frame body 1 in this embodiment is 2 ports, the distribution frame body 1 is a closed box 2, and further includes a grounding wire 7 installed inside the distribution frame body 1. A plurality of network connection ports 8 are arranged at equal distances on the inner wall of one side of the distribution frame body 1, and the height of the network connection port 8 accounts for less than or equal to 58.3% of the height of the distribution frame body 1.

[0040] In some embodiments, the thickness of the existing distribution frame body 1 is 22.5mm, and in the present application, the thickness of the distribution frame body 1 is in the range of 18mm-33mm. Typically, the height of the network connection port is 10.5mm. When the thickness of the distribution frame body 1 is 18mm, it is the thinnest case, so the height of the network connection port 8 accounts for 58.3% (10.5mm / 18mm) of the height of the distribution frame body 1. When the thickness of the distribution frame body 1 is 33mm, which is the thickest case, the height of the network connection port 8 accounts for 31.8% (10.5mm / 33mm) of the height of the distribution frame body 1. The height of the network connection port 8 accounts for between 31.8% and 58.3% of the height of the distribution frame body 1.

[0041] In some possible embodiments, the height of the network connection port 8 is 10.5mm. Since the thickness of the distribution frame body 1 in the present application is in the range of 18mm-33mm, the thickness of the distribution frame body 1 can also be any size in the range of 18mm-33mm, such as 21mm, 25mm, 28mm. When the thickness of the distribution frame body 1 is 21mm, the height of the network connection port 8 accounts for 50% (10.5mm / 21mm) of the height of the distribution frame body 1. When the thickness of the distribution frame body 1 is 25mm, the height of the network connection port 8 accounts for 42% (10.5mm / 25mm) of the height of the distribution frame body 1. When the thickness of the distribution frame body 1 is 28mm, the height of the network connection port 8 accounts for 37.5% (10.5mm / 28mm) of the height of the distribution frame body 1.

[0042] The height of the network port 8 is limited by the proportion of the height of the patch panel body 1. This is because the thinner the patch panel body 1 is, the larger the proportion of the height of the network port 8 to the height of the patch panel body 1. Compared with the existing network patch panel body 1, the height of the network port remains unchanged, but the thickness is reduced. The miniaturized design not only saves space and is more aesthetically pleasing, but also reduces transportation costs. At the same time, the entire patch panel is a closed box made of metal structure materials, which is more robust and durable, with good sealing and dustproof performance, which protects the inside of the patch panel body 1 and effectively increases the service life of the product.

[0043] In some possible implementations, combined Figures 7-12 As shown, the patch panel body 1 can also be configured with different numbers of network ports 8 according to the functional configuration requirements of the product, such as 2-port, 4-port, 6-port, 8-port, 12-port or 24-port patch panel bodies 1. The thickness of the patch panel in this application is between 18mm and 33mm. When different numbers of network ports 8 are set to meet different capacity requirements, the capacity can be expanded horizontally, so that the length of the patch panel body changes accordingly but the thickness remains unchanged. Compared with the existing patch panels, the overall thickness is reduced and the internal modular design is convenient to install and can be hung on the wall or placed on the desktop. The appearance is also more simplified and beautiful.

Figure 4 As shown, the fastening groove 101 is semi-circular, and the inner walls on both sides of the upper cover 21 are provided with buckles 102 corresponding to the fastening groove 101. The size of the fastening groove 101 is adapted to the buckles 102. The fastening groove 101 and the buckles 102 can securely connect the upper cover 21 and the bottom shell 22.

[0050] In some embodiments, a limiting hole 13 is formed in the bottom shell 22, and an elastic clamping piece 14 is arranged at the bottom of the network module 3, and the limiting hole 13 is matched with the elastic clamping piece 14 in size. Pressing the elastic clamping piece 14 can make it extend into the limiting hole 13 for clamping, and the limiting hole 13 facilitates quick disassembly and assembly of the network module 3.

[0051] The elastic clamping piece 14 is made of elastic material, which refers to a material that deforms under external force and quickly returns to its original shape after the external force is removed, such as spring steel, polyethylene, and POE.

[0052] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 8 The end of the bottom shell 22 is provided with a wire arrangement frame 6, which is located inside the box body 2, and a plurality of mounting seats 4 are arranged on the wire arrangement frame 6 at equal distances, and a grounding wire is arranged on one side of the mounting seat 4, and a plurality of clamping seats 16 are arranged on the mounting seat 4.

[0053] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 6 The back of the network module 3 is provided with a wire clasp 5, which is also fixed on the clamping seat 16, and is used for fixing the wire harness, so that the network cable is easier to arrange and replace. The wire clasp 5 includes a semicircular buckle 51 and a tooth-shaped elastic piece 52, the tooth-shaped elastic piece 52 is installed at one end of the semicircular buckle 51, and the part between the tooth-shaped elastic piece 52 and the semicircular buckle 51 is an arc-shaped hollow 53, so that the elastic force of the tooth-shaped elastic piece 52 is better.
