AI Technical Summary
Due to the lack of a fixed structure of the interface data line in the existing fiber switch chassis, the connection load between the data line and the chassis interface is large, affecting the stability of signal transmission. At the same time, multiple fiber switches are prone to phase sliding when placed together, affecting the installation stability.
An optical fiber switch chassis is designed. One side of the box is equipped with an interface component, which is electrically connected to the data cable through an adaptive connector. There is a convex cavity at the end of the box. The convex cavity is connected to the wiring board through an adaptive card, so that adjacent boxes can be clamped to avoid sliding. The side of the box is equipped with ventilation structures and arc-shaped channels to provide heat dissipation and data cable sorting space.
By reducing the load at the data line connection, the deformation risk of electrical connection components within the optical switching interface is reduced, and the signal transmission stability of the optical fiber switch is improved. At the same time, through the design of the convex cavity, the accumulation stability between multiple boxes is enhanced, and the slip phenomenon is avoided.

Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of switches, in particular to a fiber optic switch chassis. Background Art
[0002] A fiber optic switch is a high-speed network transmission relay device, also known as a fiber channel switch or SAN switch. Compared to ordinary switches, it uses fiber optic cables as the transmission medium. Fiber optic transmission has the advantages of high speed and strong anti-interference ability. However, most existing fiber optic switch chassis are rectangular shells. Due to the lack of a fixed structure for the interface data line body, the connection load between the data line and the chassis interface is large. When the data line is pulled by external force, the conductive connector in the interface is easily deformed, affecting the stability of signal transmission. On the other hand, when multiple fiber optic switches are stacked together, they are prone to phase slippage, affecting the installation stability of the fiber optic switches. To this end, we propose a fiber optic switch chassis that can reduce the load at the data line connection and improve the stacking stability of the fiber optic switch. Utility Model Content

[0025] Preferably, Figure 1 As shown, the box body 1 is a hard aluminum alloy shell with an insulating layer coated on the surface. The box body 1 made of aluminum alloy is conducive to rapid heat conduction of the box body 1.
[0026] Preferably, Figure 1 As shown, the optical exchange interface 3 includes an optical access interface and an optical output interface. The optical exchange interface 3 is arranged linearly at equal intervals and has multiple optical exchange interfaces. The optical exchange interface 3 passes through the side of the box 1 and is fixed.
