[0038] In this solution, the number of welding terminals configured in the first packaging area 100 is set to be the same as the number of battery cells of the first or second Ethernet interface. For example, if the RJ45 interface includes 8 battery cells, then the first packaging area 100 is correspondingly provided with 8 welding terminals.
