The movable connection between the protective shell and the switch body facilitates internal maintenance of the switch, improving the tightness of the connection between the network cable and the switch while also facilitating switch maintenance.

[0004] This device uses a suction cup to hold the crystal plug that enters the network cable connection cavity, preventing the network cable from falling off during use. However, the connection stability of the suction cup is poor. If the network cable is pulled during use, it is very easy to fall off from the inside of the connection port, which may cause poor contact between the network cable connector and the connection port, affecting data transmission.

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, we have implemented an innovative design based on the existing dedicated line card structure for switches. Utility Model Content

[0010] Preferably, the head end of the clamping block is in an inclined mouth shape.

[0011] Preferably, the cable management component includes a concentric shaft and a connecting frame. The concentric shaft is rotatably connected to the outer side of the body, and a connecting frame is fixedly connected to the outer side of the concentric shaft.

[0012] Preferably, the cable management component further includes a cable management pipe and through grooves. The cable management pipe is rotatably connected to the inner side of the connecting frame, and through grooves are equidistantly opened on the inner side of the cable management pipe, and the optical fiber cable passes through the inner side of the through grooves. [[ID=十七]]

[0013] Preferably, the cable management component further includes a rotating disk and limiting holes. The rotating disk is fixedly connected to the outer side of the concentric shaft, and limiting holes are opened at equal angles on the inner side of the rotating disk.

[0014] Preferably, the cable management component further includes a fixing plate, a second telescopic spring and a limiting rod. The fixing plate is fixedly connected to the outer side of the body, and a limiting rod is connected to the outer side of the fixing plate through a second telescopic spring. The limiting rod penetrates through the inner side of the fixing plate, and the tail end of the limiting rod is clamped and connected to the inner side of the limiting hole.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of the utility model is that the special line card for the switch is provided with:

[0016] 1. Anti-detachment structure: When the plug needs to be inserted into the wiring port for connection, the plug is first moved forward along the inside of the wiring port. As the plug moves forward, the locking blocks at both ends also move forward along the inside of the wiring port. When the beveled top of the locking block contacts the inner wall of the wiring port, the locking block will compress the first telescopic spring and move towards the plug. As the plug continues to go deeper, when the locking block and the slot are at the same level, the locking block will be reset by the elastic force of the first telescopic spring, so that the locking block is engaged in the inside of the slot. Through the engagement of the locking block and the slot, the plug is fixed inside the wiring port, preventing the plug from being pulled away from the wiring port by external force.

[0017] Furthermore, when it is necessary to unplug the plug, by manually pressing the connecting rod, the locking blocks on both sides can be moved towards the plug and separated from the locking slot. At this time, the plug can be pulled out horizontally.

[0018] 2. Cable Management Structure: After the plug is inserted, insert the end of the fiber optic cable into the corresponding slot and pull it outward. After insertion, manually pull the limiting rod outward to separate the end of the limiting rod from the limiting hole. After separation, rotate the connecting bracket, which rotates 90°, causing the cable management tube to rotate the fiber optic cable 90° and attach it to the upper part of the machine. This prevents the fiber optic cable from drooping on the outside of the machine and causing wear from contact with the ground. It also improves the aesthetics of fiber optic cable placement. Furthermore, the evenly spaced slots can separate multiple fiber optic cables, thus preventing tangling and signal interference. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a dedicated line card for a switch, comprising:

[0028] Example 1: As Figures 1-4 The present invention provides a technical solution: a dedicated line card for a switch, comprising: a body 1, with connection ports 2 equidistantly installed on the outer side of the body 1; a plug 3, which is plugged into and connected to the outer side of the connection ports 2, and an optical fiber cable 4 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the plug 3; a locking assembly 5, which is disposed between the connection ports 2 and the plug 3; and a cable management assembly 6, which is disposed on the outer side of the body 1; wherein, the locking assembly 5 is used to fix the connection ports 2 and the plug 3; and the cable management assembly 6 is used to organize the optical fiber cable 4.

The locking block 504 is fixedly connected to the tail end of the connecting rod 503, and the locking block 504 is engaged with the inside of the slot 501. The first telescopic spring 505 is connected between the connecting rod 503 and the outer wall of the plug 3. The first end of the locking block 504 is beveled.

[0030] When the plug 3 needs to be inserted into the wiring port 2 for connection, the plug 3 is first moved forward along the inside of the wiring port 2. As the plug 3 moves forward, the locking blocks 504 at both ends also move forward along the inside of the wiring port 2. When the beveled opening at the top of the locking block 504 contacts the inner wall of the wiring port 2, the locking block 504 will compress the first telescopic spring 505 and move towards the plug 3. As the plug 3 continues to go deeper, when the locking block 504 and the slot 501 are on the same horizontal line, the locking block 504 will be reset by the elastic force of the first telescopic spring 505, thereby locking the locking block 504 into the inside of the slot 501. Through the locking block 504 and the slot 501, the plug 3 is inserted and fixed inside the wiring port 2, preventing the plug 3 from being pulled out of the wiring port 2 by external force. When it is necessary to pull out the plug 3, the locking blocks 504 on both sides can be moved towards the plug 3 and separated from the slot 501 by manually pressing the connecting rod 503. At this time, the plug 3 can be pulled out horizontally.

The rotating disk 605 is fixedly connected to the outside of the concentric shaft 601, and the limiting hole 606 is opened at equal angles on the inner side of the rotating disk 605. The cable management assembly 6 also includes a fixing plate 607, a second telescopic spring 608 and a limiting rod 609. The fixing plate 607 is fixedly connected to the outside of the body 1, and the limiting rod 609 is connected to the outside of the fixing plate 607 through the second telescopic spring 608. The limiting rod 609 passes through the inner side of the fixing plate 607, and the tail end of the limiting rod 609 is engaged with the inner side of the limiting hole 606.

[0032] After the plug 3 is inserted, the end of the fiber optic cable 4 is inserted into the corresponding through slot 604 and pulled outward. After insertion, the limiting rod 609 is manually pulled outward to separate the end of the limiting rod 609 from the limiting hole 606. After separation, the connecting bracket 602 is rotated and flipped 90°, which causes the cable management tube 603 to rotate the fiber optic cable 4 90° and attach it to the upper end of the body 1. This prevents the fiber optic cable 4 from drooping on the outside of the body 1 and causing wear from contact with the ground. It also improves the aesthetics of the fiber optic cable 4. Furthermore, the equally spaced through slots 604 can separate multiple fiber optic cables 4, thus preventing tangling and signal interference between the fiber optic cables 4.
