DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the present application. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0040] The inventor of the present application discovered during actual research that a switch is a network device used for forwarding electrical (optical) signals, and can provide an exclusive electrical signal path for any two network nodes connected to the switch.

[0041] In the prior art, a switch includes a switch housing, a mainboard, a management interface, an optical port, a cooling system, and a power supply system. The mainboard is provided with chips and memory. The housing is used to protect the internal components; the mainboard is used to control the data flow and process data; the management interface is used to configure and manage the switch; the optical port is used to connect to other devices for data exchange; the cooling system is used to dissipate heat and maintain the normal operating temperature of the switch; and the power supply system is used to connect to an external power supply and provide power supply to the remaining components. When the demand for optical ports of a switch increases, the number of optical ports can be increased by adding additional optical port boards.

[0042] However, adding additional optical port boards can only increase the number of optical ports to a limited extent, and the switch will still have the problem of insufficient number of optical ports. Moreover, after increasing the number of optical ports in this way, the number of wiring between the optical ports and the motherboard increases, and the increased wiring will cause line signal interference problems. Especially in the case of high-density layout, signal interference may affect the stability and reliability of data transmission.

[0043] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application provides a switch and a signal processing system, wherein the switch includes a housing, a processing component, an optical port component, a connection component, a mainboard component and a power supply, wherein the processing component, the optical port component, the connection component, the mainboard component and the power supply are all located in a cavity of the housing; the optical port component includes a plurality of optical port components, and by arranging the plurality of optical port components in an array along a direction intersecting the optical port component to the mainboard component, the space inside the housing is rationally utilized, and the number of optical port components used in the switch is increased; by connecting the first ends of the plurality of sub-connectors of the connection component to the plurality of optical port components in a one-to-one correspondence, and connecting the second ends of the plurality of sub-connectors to the mainboard component, a one-to-one correspondence of information transmission between the mainboard component and the plurality of optical port components is achieved, and at the same time, the signal interference problem caused by the complex wiring between the mainboard component and the optical port components of a traditional switch is avoided, thereby improving the data transmission efficiency of the signal processing system.

[0044] The technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0045] First, refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present application provides a switch, including a box 100, a processing component 200, an optical port component 300, a connection component 400, a mainboard component 500 and a power supply 600, the box 100 has a cavity with at least one end open, the processing component 200, the optical port component 300, the connection component 400, the mainboard component 500 and the power supply 600 are all located in the cavity; the optical port component 300 is arranged at the end of the cavity close to the opening, the mainboard component 500 and the power supply 600 are arranged in the middle of the cavity, the optical port component 300 and the processing component 200 are both connected through the connection component 400 and the mainboard component 500, and the processing component 200 is configured to connect to an external network through a management port; the power supply 600 is configured to connect to an external power supply and supply power to the mainboard component 500 and the optical port component 300.

[0046] The optical port assembly 300 includes a plurality of optical port components 310, which are arranged in an array along a direction intersecting the optical port components 310 to the mainboard assembly 500; the connection assembly 400 has a plurality of sub-connectors 410, the first ends of the plurality of sub-connectors 410 are connected to the plurality of optical port components 310 one by one, and the second ends of the plurality of sub-connectors 410 are all connected to the mainboard assembly 500; the optical port connection end of the optical port component 310 is located on the side away from the connection assembly 400.

[0047] For example, refer to Figure 1 As shown, the box 100 has a cavity with an opening at one end, and the optical port assembly 300 is located at the end of the cavity close to the opening. The optical port assembly 300 includes a plurality of optical port pieces 310, and the plurality of optical port pieces 310 are arranged in an array along the direction intersecting the optical port pieces 310 to the mainboard assembly 500; by arranging the plurality of optical port pieces 310 in an array, the space at the end of the box 100 is reasonably utilized, and the number of optical port pieces 310 used by the switch is increased. The connection assembly 400 has a plurality of sub-connectors 410, and by connecting the first ends of the plurality of sub-connectors 410 to the plurality of optical port pieces 310 in a one-to-one correspondence, and connecting the second ends of the plurality of sub-connectors 410 to the mainboard assembly 500, a one-to-one correspondence signal transmission between the mainboard assembly 500 and the plurality of optical port pieces 310 is achieved, thereby avoiding the problem of signal interference caused by complex wiring between the optical port pieces 310 of the traditional switch and the mainboard assembly 500, and improving the data transmission efficiency of the signal processing system.

[0048] For example, the mainboard assembly 500 and the power supply 600 are both arranged in the middle of the cavity, which facilitates the connection of the mainboard assembly 500 through the sub-connector 410 and the optical port 310, and also facilitates the power supply 600 to supply power to the mainboard assembly 500.

[0049] For example, the optical port component 300 may be an optical port module, which is a module in a switch used to connect to an optical fiber network. The optical port module plays a role in transmitting optical signals in the network, so that the switch can transmit data with other devices through optical fibers.

[0050] For example, the motherboard assembly 500 may be a motherboard module, which includes the main processor, memory, interface, management function and other key components of the switch and is the control center of the switch. The motherboard module is responsible for processing functions such as forwarding, routing, management and control of data packets, and is also responsible for the overall operation and management of the switch. In the switch, the performance and stability of the motherboard module play a vital role in the performance and reliability of the entire switch.

[0051] For example, the processing component 200 includes a central processing unit (CPU) module and an input / output (IO) module. The CPU module is responsible for processing the control plane functions of the switch, including management, routing calculation, control decision-making and other tasks. The IO module is responsible for processing the data plane functions, including data packet reception, forwarding, filtering and other operations. The CPU / IO module works together to realize the control and data processing functions of the switch and is one of the core components of the switch. The performance and stability of the CPU / IO module directly affect the data processing capability and performance of the switch.

[0052] As a feasible implementation, the connection component 400 includes a connection seat and multiple sub-connectors 410. The multiple sub-connectors 410 are all arranged on the connection seat, and are arranged in an array on the connection seat along a direction intersecting the optical port 310 to the mainboard component 500.

[0053] The first ends of the plurality of sub-connectors 410 are all close to one side of the optical port 310 and are connected to the plurality of optical port 310 in a one-to-one correspondence; the second ends of the plurality of sub-connectors 410 are all close to the mainboard assembly 500 and are connected to the mainboard assembly 500 .

[0054] For example, refer to Figure 2 As shown, multiple sub-connectors 410 are arranged in an array on the connection seat. By connecting the first ends of the multiple sub-connectors 410 to the multiple optical port components 310 one-to-one, and connecting the second ends of the multiple sub-connectors 410 to the mainboard assembly 500, information transmission between the mainboard assembly 500 and the optical port component 310 is achieved; by connecting the multiple optical port components 310 and the multiple sub-connectors 410 one-to-one, the information and signal transmission between the multiple optical port components 310 do not interfere with each other, thereby improving the working efficiency of the switch.

[0055] For example, the connection component 400 can be an orthogonal high-speed board-to-board connector, which is used to connect the mainboard component 500 and the optical port component 300, and provide reliable signal transmission and high-speed data transmission capabilities. The orthogonal high-speed board-to-board connector includes a connector socket and a connector plug, and a guide structure between the connector socket and the connector socket. Among them, the connection seat mentioned in this application can be a connector socket, and the sub-connector 410 mentioned in this application can be a connector plug.

[0056] In orthogonal high-speed board-to-board connectors, the socket is usually provided with several pins on each side. This design can provide more connection interfaces and increase the flexibility and functionality of the connector. By providing pins on both sides of the socket, bidirectional connection can be achieved while supporting bidirectional data transmission or signal transmission. This design can also increase the density of the connector, so that it can accommodate more pins in a limited space, thereby achieving more connection interfaces. The design of providing several pins on both sides of the socket can also improve the stability and reliability of the connector, ensuring good contact and a solid connection between the pins and the socket.

[0057] Orthogonal high-speed board-to-board connectors have the following advantages:

[0058] 1. High-speed data transmission capability: It can support high-speed data transmission and meet the requirements of modern electronic devices for data transmission speed.

[0059] 2. Reliability: The orthogonal high-speed inter-board connector is precisely designed to provide stable and reliable signal transmission, reducing interference and bit error rate in data transmission.

[0060] 3. Compact design: Orthogonal high-speed board-to-board connectors are small in size and suitable for scenarios with limited space in electronic devices.

[0061] 4. Easy to install: The orthogonal high-speed board-to-board connector plug and socket are reasonably designed, easy to plug and unplug, and easy to install.

[0062] As a feasible implementation manner, along a direction crossing the mainboard assembly 500 to the optical port member 310 , the optical port assembly 300 and the processing assembly 200 are arranged at intervals.

[0063] For example, along the direction crossing the mainboard assembly 500 to the optical port 310, this direction refers to Figure 1 In the direction shown in Y, the optical port member 310 and the processing assembly 200 are arranged alternately. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, by arranging the processing component 200 at the end of the cavity close to the opening, it is connected with the external device through the management interface and performs data exchange.

[0064] For example, in a home network, the external device may be a router, and the processing component 200 is usually connected to the router via an Ethernet cable. This connection method can achieve fast transmission and exchange of data while maintaining the stability and reliability of the network. Through the Ethernet connection, various types of data can be transmitted between the switch and the router, including Internet data, local area network data, and other network data. This connection method is usually used to build a local area network (LAN) in a home network, so that various devices can easily share network resources and Internet connections.

[0065] As a feasible implementation, the connection component 400 further includes a processing connection socket and a processing plug-in component 420. The processing plug-in component 420 is disposed on the processing connection socket, and the processing plug-in component 420 is connected to the processing component 200 and the mainboard component 500 respectively.

[0066] For example, the connection between the processing component 200 and the mainboard component 500 is no longer connected by a connection line, but is connected by a processing connection socket and a processing plug-in 420, wherein the processing connection socket mentioned in the present application can be a connector socket, and the processing plug-in 420 mentioned in the present application can be a connector plug. In this way, the problem of complex line structure caused by traditional connection lines is avoided, the problem of interference between lines is avoided, and the transmission efficiency is improved.

[0067] As a feasible implementation, the mainboard assembly 500 includes at least two mainboards, and at least two mainboards are stacked along the thickness direction of the switch; the first end of the mainboard is arranged close to the optical port assembly 300, and the first end of the mainboard is connected to the optical port assembly 300 through the connecting assembly 400.

[0068] For example, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the mainboard assembly 500 includes two mainboards, and the two mainboards are stacked along the thickness direction of the switch. Figure 1 By providing two main boards and stacking the main boards, the light ports 310 can be arranged in an array along a direction crossing the main board assembly 500 to the light ports 310 , so as to increase the number of the light ports 310 .

[0069] It is understandable that the number of mainboards can be 2, 3, or 4, and this application does not limit the number of mainboards.

[0070] As a feasible implementation, the power supply 600 includes a power supply board, which is located at the bottom of the cavity and connected to an external power source.

[0071] The power supply board is connected to the mainboard assembly 500 through a copper bus or a power pin and is electrically conductive.

[0072] For example, refer to Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the power supply board obtains power from an external power source and supplies power to the mainboard assembly 500 through a copper busbar or a power pin. When the power supply board supplies power to the mainboard assembly 500 through the copper busbar, when the power supply board transmits current to the copper busbar, due to the excellent electrical conductivity of copper, the current can be smoothly transmitted in the copper busbar and transmitted to the mainboard assembly 500. The copper busbar can be connected to the power supply board and the mainboard assembly 500 by welding, bolting, etc. to ensure normal operation of the circuit and current transmission.

[0073] When the power supply board supplies power to the mainboard assembly 500 through the power pin, the power pin is inserted into the jack in the power socket to achieve electrical connection. When the pin is inserted into the jack, the metal pin contacts the conductive part in the jack, forming a closed circuit, thereby achieving power transmission. The power pin generates current transmission at the contact point in the jack, thereby providing the required power supply for the switch. By plugging and unplugging the power pin, the power supply can be easily connected or disconnected, realizing the switch and power supply control of the switch.

[0074] The power supply board and the mainboard assembly 500 are connected by a copper busbar or a power pin, which reduces the space occupied by the power line and improves space utilization; makes the switch design more compact, suitable for scenarios with limited space, reduces the number of connectors in the power line, reduces failure points, and improves the reliability and stability of the switch.

[0075] Specifically, both the motherboard assembly 500 and the power supply board are designed with pads, which are metalized holes or planes used to solder electronic components or connecting wires. When connecting the motherboard assembly 500 and the power supply board, the ports of the copper busbar are aligned with the pads on the motherboard assembly 500, and then they are connected together through welding technology. Connecting the motherboard assembly 500 and the copper busbar, and connecting the power supply board and the copper busbar together through welding technology can ensure that the electronic signals and power transmission between them are unimpeded, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the entire switch.

[0076] For example, the power supply 600 may be a power distribution board (PDB). The PDB module is a key component for managing and distributing power, and is usually located inside a switch. It is responsible for distributing power from a power input port to various components and modules inside the switch, such as fans, circuit boards, interface modules, etc. Through the PDB module, power can be effectively distributed and managed to ensure that various components and modules can receive a stable and appropriate power supply.

[0077] As a feasible implementation, the switch further includes a power supply connector 700 and a power supply connector head 710 which are connected to each other. The power supply connector 700 is arranged on the power supply board, and the power supply connector head 710 is arranged at the end of the power supply connector 700 close to the optical port assembly 300 .

[0078] The power supply board is connected to the bottom of the power supply connector 700 and is electrically connected, and the power supply connector 710 is connected to the optical port assembly 300 and is electrically connected.

[0079] For example, by providing a power supply connector 700 and a power supply connector head 710, an electrical connection between the power supply board and the optical port assembly 300 is achieved. The power supply connector 700 and the power supply connector head 710 are usually made of metal materials, such as copper or aluminum, and have excellent electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. The power supply connector 700 and the power supply connector head 710 can effectively transmit current and signals, connect various components and complete the circuit closure. The power supply connector 700 can be part of a Busbar module, and a Busbar module generally refers to a modular assembly including multiple conductive busbars. The power supply connector 700 can be a male power connector in the Busbar module, and the power supply connector head 710 can be a female power connector of the optical port assembly 300. In this way, the male and female heads are plugged together to achieve power supply.

[0080] As a feasible implementation, the optical port assembly 300 also includes an optical port connecting plate, which includes a plurality of optical port connecting sections 320. Along a direction intersecting the optical port component 310 to the main board assembly 500, the plurality of optical port connecting sections 320 and the plurality of optical port components 310 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0081] The optical port connection board is connected and electrically conducted with the power supply board through the power supply connector 710 and the power supply connector 700 .

[0082] For example, by arranging the optical port connection section 320 and the optical port component 310 in a one-to-one corresponding manner, the heat between different optical port components 310 can be effectively isolated, avoiding overheating caused by heat accumulation, and improving the overall heat dissipation performance. At the same time, the interval arrangement of the optical port connection section 320 and the optical port component 310 can effectively reduce the signal interference between different optical ports, and improve the stability and reliability of data transmission. The interval arrangement of the optical port connection section 320 and the optical port component 310 can also effectively utilize the space of the switch box 100, making the layout between multiple optical port components 310 more reasonable, and improving the overall performance and efficiency of the switch.

[0083] As a feasible implementation manner, a heat dissipation component 800 is further included, and the heat dissipation component 800 is located at the end of the cavity away from the optical port component 300.

[0084] The heat dissipation assembly 800 includes a heat dissipation connection plate 820 and a heat dissipation fan 810. The first end of the heat dissipation connection plate 820 is connected to the power supply board through a wire, the second end of the heat dissipation connection plate 820 is connected to the heat dissipation fan 810, and the air outlet end of the heat dissipation fan 810 faces the optical port assembly 300.

[0085] For example, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a heat dissipation connection plate 820 and a heat dissipation fan 810 are provided at one end of the cavity away from the optical port assembly 300, and the heat dissipation connection plate 820 is connected to the power supply board through wires to obtain electric energy. By directing the outlet end of the heat dissipation fan 810 toward the optical port assembly 300, the heat dissipation fan 810 generates airflow, so that air circulates in the cavity of the switch housing 100, effectively taking away the heat generated by the switch, reducing the internal temperature of the switch, and maintaining the normal operation of the switch.

[0086] In a second aspect, the present application provides a signal processing system, including a signal receiving device and the above-mentioned switch, wherein the signal receiving device and the optical port 310 of the switch are connected and electrically conductive.

[0087] For example, when the switch is used in a home network, the power plug of the switch is inserted into a power socket, the power switch of the switch is turned on, and the port connector of the switch is connected to the home router. The network cables are used to connect various signal receiving devices in the home, such as computers, smart phones, and smart TVs, to the optical port 310 of the switch. A switch using multiple optical port 310 can provide a more stable, high-speed, and secure network connection in the home network, meeting the needs of multi-device connection and data transmission in the home.
