Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of communication equipment, in particular to a combined distribution frame of an optical fiber network and a wiring network. Background Art

[0002] The combined patch panel for fiber optic networks and structured wiring networks is an important device for managing and organizing communication cables. The patch panel is equipped with space for multiple module boxes, each of which is individually wired, serving as either a fiber optic wiring box or a network wiring box. These not only help keep wiring neat and organized, but also facilitate future maintenance and expansion. Existing patch panel designs arrange the module boxes vertically, such as those described in Chinese invention patent document CN116774367A or Chinese invention patent document CN105739034A. While this vertical arrangement allows for separate wiring of each module box, it can be inconvenient to operate when there are many module boxes or the patch panel itself is installed at a high position within the cabinet, as operators may need to use ladders or other tools to perform wiring or maintenance. Furthermore, the vertical arrangement can cause cables to be distributed from top to bottom, increasing the complexity of cable management, especially in high-density wiring environments.

[0031] The shell 1 includes a bottom plate 101, side plates 103 and a rear plate 102 that are connected to each other, and the top of the rear plate 102 is connected to the cover plate 104; a connecting member 7 is provided at the rear end of the cover plate 104, and the cover plate 104 is snap-connected or rotatably connected to the rear plate 102 through the connecting member 7; the connecting member 7 is T-shaped, including a horizontal bar and a vertical bar, and the vertical bar is connected to the cover plate 104; a slot is vertically provided on the top of the rear plate 102 or a ring is horizontally provided. When the slot is provided, the vertical bar is snap-connected with the slot, and the cross bar is located on the rear side of the rear plate 102; when the ring is provided, the cross bar is cylindrical, and the two ends of the cross bar are respectively inserted into adjacent rings, and the cross bar is rotatably connected to the ring.

[0032] The lower front end of the mounting frame is connected to a slide plate 2, and the space above the slide plate 2 is a wire management groove 201; the front end of the slide plate 2 is rotatably connected to a panel 105; the slide plate 2 is pulled to slide the mounting frame in and out on the bottom plate 101 of the shell 1; the bottom plate 101, the rear plate 102, the side plate 103 and the cover plate 104 together form an accommodating cavity 108; the mounting frame is in the accommodating cavity 108.

[0033] A wiring groove 3 is provided on the side panel 103 at a position corresponding to the wire management groove 201 ; and a wire inlet 6 is provided on the rear panel 102 .

[0034] The mounting frame is horizontally provided with a plurality of mounting slots 4, into which the module box 8 is inserted; the inner side walls of the mounting slot 4 are recessed from the front end to the rear end and to the side to provide a limiting portion 5; the module box 8 is provided with a locking portion 801 protruding outward on both sides, and when the module box 8 is inserted into the mounting slot 4, the locking portion 801 gradually enters the limiting portion 5 and abuts against the limiting portion 5.

[0035] A stopper 802 and a puller 803 are protruding from one side of the locking portion 801 near the limiting portion 5. The stopper 802 is closer to the rear panel 102 than the puller 803. When the module box 8 is fully inserted into the mounting slot 4, the puller 803 is located outside the mounting slot 4. The puller 803 protrudes further than the stopper 802. When the module box 8 is fully inserted into the mounting slot 4, the puller 803 abuts against the front end of the mounting bracket. To remove the module box 8, the puller 803 is pulled.

[0036] A sleeve is provided at the front end of the slide plate 2, and a receiving groove 106 is provided on the sleeve. A connecting shaft 107 is provided at the bottom of the panel 105. The connecting shaft 107 is placed in the receiving groove 106 and its two ends are rotatably arranged in the sleeve.

[0037] The panel 105 is L-shaped and made of transparent material. The front end of the cover 104 extends to the front end surface of the mounting frame.

[0038] Ear plates 9 connected to the cabinet are fixedly mounted on both sides of the housing 1 .

[0039] Several fiber optic and / or cabling network module boxes are arranged horizontally within a patch panel, with cable management troughs at the front to organize cables for easy replacement and management. All cassettes arranged horizontally are at the same height, making wiring and maintenance more convenient for operators. Horizontal arrangement helps better manage and organize cables, especially in high-density cabling environments. It also evenly distributes cassettes within the cabinet, helping to balance loads and dissipate heat.

[0040] The module box can be slid into and out of the distribution frame for easy replacement; a wiring trough is set on the side to allow cables to pass through from the side, and a cable management trough is set at the front to arrange the cables corresponding to the module box conveniently and regularly. The cable management trough space is adjustable; a transparent L-shaped panel is set for easy observation.

[0041] By optimizing the patch panel's structural design, it can accommodate more fiber connections and network lines within a limited space, thereby improving space utilization. A compact design and rational cable management solutions reduce redundant space and improve overall efficiency. A modular, pluggable design simplifies and accelerates installation and maintenance. The modular design facilitates installation and maintenance. This modular design allows for more flexible system installation or expansion, allowing the patch panel capacity to be adjusted based on demand. This reduces operational complexity for technicians, reduces installation and maintenance costs, and improves work efficiency.

[0042] We choose high-quality cold-rolled sheet materials to make the wiring frame shell, and design heat dissipation holes or ventilation slots in key locations, such as the rear position of the cover plate 104, to ensure good heat dissipation. By optimizing material selection and manufacturing processes, we can reduce the production cost of the wiring frame. While ensuring high performance and high reliability, we ensure that the product has a higher cost-effectiveness and meets the budget needs of more customers. There is a guide wiring trough for the jumpers at the front of the product, and a cable management trough is also provided to facilitate the overall cable arrangement of the computer room, which is more beautiful and convenient. After completing the wiring operation, you can cover the front cover plate 104 to protect the cables, and the transparent cover plate 104 is also more convenient to manage. There are two fixing ear plates 9 on both sides of the rack to facilitate the direct installation of this 19-inch 1U device on the cabinet.

[0043] Ensure that the design of patch panels and connectors complies with international standards, improve compatibility with equipment from other manufacturers, resolve connectivity issues between different devices, and ensure smooth system integration.

[0044] With the development of data centers and communications networks, the demand for high-density fiber optic connections continues to increase. Designed specifically for fiber optic cabling, this patch panel can be used in 96-core high-density fiber optic connections, meeting the demands of large-scale data transmission. Compared to the 4U height of traditional 96-core fiber optic patch panels, this patch panel can be kept to a mere 1U. Furthermore, for some network cabling needs, this patch panel can accommodate conventional network module configurations. Furthermore, in certain scenarios, it can optimize the installation space for both fiber optic and network patch panels, reducing the required space from at least 2U to 1U.

[0045] The above description is only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and is not intended to limit it. Other modifications or equivalent substitutions made to the technical solution of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
