[0002] Optical modules are composed of optoelectronic devices, functional circuits and optical interfaces. Optoelectronic devices include transmitting and receiving parts. The function of optical modules is to convert electrical signals into optical signals at the transmitting end. After transmission through optical fiber, the receiving end converts the optical signals into electrical signals. Optical modules are classified according to the packaging form. Common ones include SFP, SFP+, SFF, Gigabit Ethernet interface converter (GBI C), etc.

[0003] The existing optical module shell structure uses screws to connect and fix the six front, back, left, right, top, and bottom panels of the optical module. Since the six front, back, left, right, top, and bottom panels are almost flat and there are no corresponding limit blocking components at the ends, after being connected with screws, when subjected to vibration, the six front, back, left, right, top, and bottom panels may shift. In order to ensure the stability of the optical module shell structure, an optical module shell structure is proposed. Utility Model Content
