If the good heat dissipation effect of super-speed optical module cannot be guaranteed, the performance of the electro-optical conversion components, photoelectric conversion components and chips in the super-speed optical module will be greatly reduced, and even the whole super-speed optical module cannot work normally or fail. Therefore, super-speed optical module needs to use more efficient heat dissipation structure to ensure the stable operation of its internal chips and related photoelectric devices.

This defect limits the application of the connector in the field of optical module liquid cooling heat dissipation. Therefore, it is necessary to design a corresponding technical scheme to solve the above problems. SUMMARY
