In particular, in the case of limited outdoor environment, the installation environment often cannot provide stable power supply. In order to solve this problem, the market currently uses a two-in-one cable + optical fiber design that combines electrical wires and optical fibers. This cable combines the advantages of optical fibers and electrical wires, enabling simultaneous transmission of optical and electrical signals in environments without power supply, meeting the needs of many outdoor installation scenarios. However, when it is necessary to transmit optical and electrical signals over long distances or to switch to another optical-electric hybrid cable during transmission, the existing optical-electric hybrid cable is not up to the task;
[0004] The existing optical-electric hybrid cable can only achieve transmission of a specific length, and cannot meet the transmission needs of any length, mainly because there is a lack of a device that can support optical-electric hybrid switching on the market. Current optical fiber flanges can relay optical signals, but cannot transmit electrical signals, which undoubtedly limits the application of optical-electric hybrid cables in more extensive scenarios. The following details the above-mentioned defects:
[0005] 1. Cannot switch optical and electrical signals: traditional switching devices often only handle a single type of signal (optical or electrical), and cannot switch optical and electrical signals simultaneously;
