The embodiments of this utility model will now be described based on its overall structure.
[0036] This embodiment relates to a novel single-port desktop OLT device, designed to provide efficient, stable equipment support for optical communication networks with good heat dissipation and protection performance.
[0037] Example 1:
[0038] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this single-port desktop OLT device mainly consists of a network port, a data switching module, a GPON interface, and a power supply module. The data switching module serves as the core data processing and transmission hub. Its internal switching chip, FPGA chip, and optical module are electrically connected in sequence. The network port is electrically connected to the switching chip, the optical module is electrically connected to the GPON interface, and the power supply module provides a stable power supply to the data switching module.
[0039] This single-port desktop OLT device has four network ports, which adopt a standard Ethernet interface design and can connect to various external network devices, such as routers and servers. The network ports have high-speed data transmission capabilities and can receive various data traffic from upper-layer network devices, including but not limited to Internet access request data, video stream data, voice communication data, etc., and transmit these data to the connected switching chip.
[0040] The switching chip has a large-capacity data buffer and high-speed data switching capability. It can quickly switch and route the data input from the network port according to information such as the destination address of the data, and accurately forward it to the subsequent FPGA chip for further processing. At the same time, it can also forward the uplink data from the FPGA chip to the corresponding network port for transmission to the upper layer network.
[0041] The FPGA chip has high flexibility and programmability. In a data processing flow, the FPGA chip receives downlink data from the switching chip, and can perform various preprocessing operations on the data, such as encoding format conversion to make the data more suitable for transmission in a GPON network, and preliminary signal correction and verification to improve the accuracy of data transmission. In the uplink direction, the FPGA chip decodes and unpacks the electrical signal converted from the uplink optical signal of the optical module, and then transmits the processed uplink data to the switching chip. The FPGA chip is electrically connected to a clock generator, which provides accurate clock signals for the operation of the chip, ensuring that all operations are performed according to accurate timing, thereby ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of data processing.
[0042] The optical module is compatible with the GPON interface and can efficiently convert optical and electrical signals. In the downlink direction, the optical module converts the electrical signal processed by the FPGA chip into an optical signal, which is transmitted to the external optical distribution network (ODN) through the GPON interface, so as to be further transmitted to the optical network terminal (ONT) or the optical network unit (ONU). In the uplink direction, the optical module receives the uplink optical signal from the GPON interface and converts it into an electrical signal before transmitting it to the FPGA chip.
[0043] The GPON interface of the single-port desktop OLT device is one interface, which is designed in accordance with the GPON-related standard specifications and has the characteristics of high bandwidth and long-distance transmission. As the key interface for connecting to the external ODN, it can stably transmit the downlink optical signal processed by the data exchange module to the ODN network, and receive the uplink optical signal transmitted from multiple ONTs / ONUs in the ODN network and transmit it to the data exchange module for subsequent processing.
[0044] The power module adopts a high-efficiency and stable power circuit design, which can convert the input mains or other external power into a stable DC voltage required by the data exchange module. For example, it can convert 220V AC mains into different levels of DC voltage such as 5V and 3.3V, to provide reliable power support for the switching chip, FPGA chip, optical module, etc., and ensure the normal and stable operation of the entire single-port desktop OLT device.
[0045] In actual operation, when external network equipment sends data to the OLT device through the network port, the data first enters the switching chip, is routed to the FPGA chip for preprocessing, and then is converted into an optical signal by the optical module and transmitted to the ODN network through the GPON interface. Conversely, when uplink optical signals are transmitted from the ODN network, they enter the optical module through the GPON interface, are converted into electrical signals, and then are processed by the FPGA chip and transmitted to the upper-layer network equipment through the switching chip from the network port, thereby realizing a complete data interaction and transmission process.
[0046] Example 2:
[0047] Unlike Embodiment 1, in order to improve the heat dissipation of this single-port desktop OLT device, such as... Figures 4-7 As shown, the single-port desktop OLT device also includes a housing 1, which serves as the external protective structure for the entire device and houses the aforementioned key internal components. To ensure the stability of the device during operation, the housing 1 is equipped with a dedicated heat dissipation device.
[0048] Two first ventilation openings are provided on the side of the housing 1, and an air exchange fan 21 is installed in the first ventilation opening. The air exchange fan 21 can draw out the hot air generated inside the OLT equipment due to the operation of electronic components, thereby reducing the internal temperature of the equipment and preventing the performance of components from deteriorating or even being damaged due to overheating. In order to ensure the safe operation of the air exchange fan 21, a protective cover 22 is fixed on the side of it near the outside of the housing 1 to prevent external objects from accidentally contacting the fan blades and causing damage.
[0049] Meanwhile, two opposing second vents 11 are provided on both sides adjacent to the side where the first vent is located. These second vents 11 are used to introduce external cold air to form good air convection and further improve the heat dissipation effect. In order to prevent dust from entering the equipment with the air, a dustproof component is detachably connected to the housing 1 to cover the second vents 11 and filter dust from the airflow.
[0050] Specifically, a slot 12 is provided at one end of the housing 1 near the second vent 11. The dustproof component includes a fixed frame 31 that is slidably connected to the slot 12. A filter screen 32 for filtering dust is fixedly connected inside the fixed frame 31 (referring to the inner surface of the fixed frame 31). When air passes through the filter screen 32, dust is effectively blocked outside the device.
[0051] The upper end of the fixed frame 31 (with) Figure 6 , Figure 7 (For the purpose of description) A retaining plate 33 is fixed to the outside of the housing 1 and is used to pull the retaining frame 31 out of the slot 12, so that the user can regularly disassemble the dustproof assembly to clean or replace the filter 32, such as Figure 5 As shown, the two ends of the slot 12 are machined into dovetail grooves, and the two ends of the fixing frame 31 near the dovetail grooves are machined into wedge-shaped blocks that match the dovetail grooves. This design allows the fixing frame 31 to be stably connected in the slot 12 and will not easily loosen or fall off. In addition, the width of the card plate 33 gradually increases from the end near the fixing frame 31 to the end away from the fixing frame 31. This setting makes it easy for the user to hold the card plate 33 with their fingers and pull the card plate 33.
[0052] As can be seen from the above, the technical principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0053] The FPGA chip is used to replace most of the functional modules in the OLT, and the functions are highly integrated. For example, in the OLT, a large amount of data from multiple user terminal devices (such as ONUs) needs to be exchanged and routed at high speed, and the FPGA can be used to realize flexible data exchange and forwarding functions, and can also help to realize various access service functions, such as voice signal coding and decoding, video stream processing, and data encryption and decryption functions through programming, and can also be used for optical signal and electrical signal conversion processing, realizing the adaptation between different interface types. Moreover, the FPGA chip has small size and low energy consumption, which can greatly reduce the overall size and energy consumption of the OLT device, and the device does not generate serious heat, has simple structure and is easy to dissipate heat. At the same time, after the FPGA is connected with the switching chip, the functions of the switching chip can be supplemented and enhanced, such as the enhancement of data exchange function, flexible flow control and management, protocol adaptation and conversion, assistance in fault detection and recovery support, etc., so that the OLT device runs more smoothly and stably.
[0054] At the same time, in order to improve the heat dissipation effect of the OLT device, a heat dissipation device is also configured to assist heat dissipation, and the internal hot air is extracted by the ventilation fan 21 to cool the device. In order to prevent dust from entering the device during ventilation, a dustproof assembly is arranged at the second ventilation opening 11, which is pullably connected to the shell 1. The filter screen 32 can filter the air entering the device interior. When the filter screen 32 is used for a long time, dust accumulates on the filter screen 32, causing poor air permeability and affecting heat dissipation. If the filter screen 32 is cleaned from the outside of the shell 1 (such as brushing off the dust on the filter screen 32), the dust is easy to enter the shell 1. In order to prevent the dust on the filter screen 32 from entering the shell 1, the shell 1 can only be disassembled for cleaning, which is not convenient to operate. Moreover, because the shell 1 is internally provided with a mainboard and other parts, the internal space of the shell 1 is interfered, which is not convenient for cleaning the filter screen 32. In the present scheme, the fixed frame 31 can be pulled out of the shell 1 from the slot 12 to clean the filter screen 32, which is more thorough and convenient, and does not affect the internal parts of the shell 1.
[0055] In summary, the single-port desktop OLT device improves the reliability and service life of the device while ensuring the performance of optical communication data processing and transmission by reasonable internal component layout and perfect heat dissipation and dust prevention design, and can meet the application requirements of various optical communication network scenes, and solve the problems of high energy consumption, large size and poor heat dissipation caused by low internal module integration of the existing OLT device.
