The connecting plate 400 is arranged on the side of the connecting seat 200 away from the receiving groove 110, and a first welding position 410 is arranged on the connecting plate 400. The end of the metal terminal 300 away from the receiving groove 110 is electrically connected to the first welding position 410. A second welding position 420 is arranged on the connecting plate 400 at a position corresponding to the first welding position 410. The second welding position 420 is electrically connected to the first welding position 410, and the second welding position 420 is used to weld the end of a network cable. The wire pressing cover plate 500 is arranged in the receiving groove 110, and the wire pressing cover plate 500 is slidably connected to the receiving groove 110. A wire pressing groove 510 is arranged on the wire pressing cover plate 500 at a position corresponding to the metal terminal 300. The wire pressing groove 510 cooperates with the metal terminal 300 to be electrically connected to another network cable, thereby realizing the connection of the two network cables, which is easy to operate and avoids poor contact of the terminal contact area after the plug and the socket are connected, resulting in product function failure.

[0024] There are multiple metal terminals 300, which are arranged side by side and fixedly connected to the connecting seat 200, and the number of first welding positions 410 and wire crimping grooves 510 matches the number of metal terminals 300, thereby achieving mutual correspondence between the metal terminals 300, the first welding positions 410 and the wire crimping grooves 510.

[0025] Please combine Figure 2 Also see Figure 4 The metal terminal 300 includes a conductive portion 310, a connecting portion 320 is provided at one end of the conductive portion 310, and the connecting portion 320 is electrically connected to the first welding position 410, and a spike portion 330 is provided at the other end of the conductive portion 310, and the spike portion 330 is located at a corresponding position of the wire crimping groove 510. It should be noted that the conductive portion 310 is used to electrically connect the connecting portion 320 with the spike portion 330, and the connecting portion 320 is used to electrically connect with the first welding position 410. Preferably, the connecting portion 320 is electrically connected with the first welding position 410 by welding, and the spike portion 330 is used to cooperate with the wire crimping groove 510 to pierce the insulation layer on the outer surface of the network cable, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the spike portion 330 and the network cable.
