[0024] The technical solution of the utility model has the following advantages:

[0025] 1. The utility model provides a cable organizer, in which a support plate is placed in a positioning groove on the back of the cable organizer body. When the cable organizer is positioning the cables, the cable organizer body transmits the force received to the support plate. The strength of the support plate is greater than that of the cable organizer body. The support plate enhances the overall strength of the cable organizer, thereby solving the problem of the cable organizer being easy to bend. Furthermore, after the cable organizer body is extended, the cable organizer body is not easy to bend, thereby greatly extending the service life of the cable organizer.

[0042] The exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided in order to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art. It should be noted that the utility model describes the cable organizer of the present invention by embedding a support plate on the back of the cable organizer body, which is only a preferred embodiment and does not limit the protection scope of the cable organizer.

[0043] It should be understood that the terms used herein are for the purpose of describing specific example embodiments only and are not intended to be limiting. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular forms "a", "an" and "an" as used herein may also be meant to include the plural forms. The terms "comprise", "include" and "have" are inclusive and therefore specify the presence of stated features, elements and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0044] Although the terms first, second, etc. may be used in the text to describe multiple elements, components, regions, layers and / or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers and / or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms may only be used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or section from another region, layer or section. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, terms such as "first", "second" and other numerical terms do not imply order or sequence when used in the text. In addition, in the description of the utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0045] For ease of description, spatial relative terms can be used in the text to describe the relationship of an element or feature relative to another element or feature as shown in the figure, and these relative terms are, for example, "front", "rear", "middle", "inside", "longitudinal", "lateral", "side", "vertical", "outside", etc. Such spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the mechanism in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figure. For example, if the mechanism in the figure flips, the element described as "below other elements or features" or "below other elements or features" will be subsequently oriented to "above other elements or features" or "above other elements or features". Therefore, the example term "below..." can include the orientation on and below. The mechanism can be oriented in addition (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions) and the spatial relative descriptors used in the text are interpreted accordingly.

[0046] During the RF test, a large number of cable assemblies are used. RF cable assemblies are expensive and easy to damage. When the test machine is shut down or some cable assemblies are not connected, the idle cables need to be properly stored and organized. The existing technology generally installs a cable organizer on the side wall of the test machine to organize and manage the RF cables. In order to facilitate the access to the cable assemblies, the cable organizer is generally vertically pasted.

[0047] Existing cable organizers of various structures are generally molded from silicone material and usually have only 5 slots, which is far from meeting the needs of RF cables. If the number of slots is increased, the length of the cable organizer will increase. Due to the heavy weight of the RF cable and the influence of the material and molding process of the cable organizer, the silicone cable organizer is easy to bend in the middle.

[0048] Based on this, the utility model designs a cable organizer for storing radio frequency cable assemblies, which enhances the overall strength of the cable organizer by embedding a support plate on the back of the cable organizer body, thereby making the cable organizer as a whole not easy to bend. In addition, the material of the cable organizer of the utility model is changed from silicone to thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer, which enhances the overall strength of the cable organizer.

[0049] In addition, existing silicone cable organizers are generally fixed by attaching foam to the back, which has low fixing strength and is easy to fall off, which can easily cause damage to the cable assembly.

[0050] Based on this, the cable organizer provided by the utility model uses screws to pass through the cable organizer body and the carbon fiber board support plate, so that the cable organizer can be positioned on the side wall of the test machine by the screws, thereby effectively preventing the cable organizer from falling off the side wall of the test machine.

[0051] The utility model provides a radio frequency cable organizer, which solves the problems of insufficient slots, easy deformation, easy falling off, etc. of existing cable organizers. The utility model further improves that the slots of the radio frequency cable organizer are expanded to 10 slots, the material of the cable organizer is changed from silicone to thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer, and the fixing method is changed from adhesive foam to screw fixing.

[0052] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the cable organizer of the first aspect of the present invention.

[0053] It should be noted that the cable organizer of the first aspect of the utility model is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model. The cable organizer of the utility model can adopt the cable organizer of the first aspect of the utility model or other structures. For the convenience of explanation, the cable organizer of the first aspect of the utility model is explained in detail below.

[0056] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, “the support plate 2 is accommodated in the positioning groove 11” means that the support plate 2 is accommodated or received in the positioning groove 11. The support plate 2 may be embedded in the positioning groove 11, or the support plate 2 may not be embedded in the positioning groove 11. Preferably, the support plate 2 is embedded in the positioning groove 11.

[0057] In the cable organizer described above, a support plate 2 is placed in a positioning groove 11 on the back of the cable organizer body 1. When the cable organizer is positioning the cables, the cable organizer body 1 transmits the force received to the support plate 2. The strength of the support plate 2 is greater than that of the cable organizer body 1. The support plate 2 enhances the overall strength of the cable organizer, thereby solving the problem of the cable organizer being easy to bend. Furthermore, after the cable organizer body 1 is extended, the cable organizer body 1 is not easy to bend, which greatly prolongs the service life of the cable organizer.
