[0016] A specific implementation of the present utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but it should be understood that the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited by the specific implementation mode.
[0017] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, a multi-daughter card interconnection backplane provided by an embodiment of the utility model adopts a 2U (80mm) height design. This embodiment is isolated according to functional areas, adopts vertical functional division, and horizontal redundant backup design, taking into account the signal isolation and compatibility of the daughter cards; the backplane is provided with a power supply area, a heat dissipation area, a functional area and a main control area, and the output end of the power supply area is connected to the power input end of the heat dissipation area and the functional area; the heat dissipation area and the power supply area are respectively located on both sides of the functional area;
[0018] Among them, the functional area includes at least two functional modules. This embodiment takes two functional modules as an example. The functional module includes a main control slot 1 and multiple baseband slots 2. This embodiment takes three baseband slots as an example. The two functional modules included in the functional area are arranged horizontally, and one main control slot of the functional module and the three baseband slots are arranged vertically;
[0019] The bottom layer is the main control slot, and the top three are baseband slots. The main control slot cooperates with the main control unit daughter card, and the baseband slot cooperates with the baseband unit daughter card;
[0020] The main control slot in the same functional module is connected to the bus side communication interfaces of multiple baseband slots respectively through the backplane bus interface;
[0021] The baseband slot of any functional module is connected to the baseband slot located next to it and all the main control slots of the functional area, and all the main control slots of the functional area are connected to each other.
[0022] The power supply area includes two power supply slots 4, which are the same in number as the functional modules, and are used to install power supply module 1 and power supply module 2 respectively. The output parts of the power supply slots are combined on the backplane and connected to the power input terminals of all slots in the heat dissipation area and the functional area.
[0023] The heat dissipation area includes at least one fan slot 3, and the fan slot is connected to the main control slot via a bus;
[0024] The backplane of this embodiment supports BBU transceiver operation in redundant mode (1+1 backup), non-redundant mode (each functional subcard has at least one) and mixed mode (each subcard can be randomly matched).
[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, the backplane of this embodiment can support one fan cooling daughter card, two 1500W power supply daughter cards, six baseband unit daughter cards and two main control unit daughter cards; the power supply function daughter card supports load sharing in redundant mode and can provide higher power supply; the baseband slot supports any live plug-in of daughter cards with the same function, automatically identifies redundant and non-redundant modes, supports foolproof design of daughter cards with different functions, and supports active switching of online fault daughter cards to spare daughter cards;
[0026] At the same time, the number of BBU-to-RRU connections supports the same flexible ratio as the sub-card. A maximum of 16 RRU devices can be connected in redundant mode. The switching interface throughput can reach 360Gbps by port.
[0027] Redundant backup is used to realize redundant signal connection between slots that need to be backed up on the backplane, for example Figure 2 In the example, the baseband unit subcard 1 and the baseband unit subcard 2 are mutually active and standby, and there is no active and standby relationship with other baseband slots. The baseband and the main control unit belong to different business areas and there is no active and standby relationship. The main control unit subcard 1 and the main control unit subcard 2 have an active and standby relationship, which is the physical realization of redundant backup. When backup switching is required, the software control part needs to operate to make the original active slot enter the standby state and the standby slot enter the active state. This is the active and standby switching on the software. Since the physical signal connection on the backplane is exactly the same for the active and standby slots, the active and standby physical switching can be completed by completing the switching state at the software level. This principle is also applicable to the baseband service and main control management slot subcards.
