Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of network accessory technology, specifically a shielded network socket with a dustproof door. Background Technology
[0002] RJ45 connectors are currently the standard Ethernet interface, widely used in network products such as Ethernet cards, routers, and switches. The network sockets involved are indispensable connectors. In high-frequency communication, because electrical signals travel at extremely high frequencies between different devices, different signals often interfere with each other, leading to errors in the transmitted signals. To avoid this, shielded network sockets were developed. However, current shielded network sockets have their ports directly exposed to the air, making them susceptible to dust and other foreign matter entering over time. This can cause poor contact or damage to the gold contacts, affecting the lifespan and functionality of the network information module. Furthermore, the cable clamps on current network sockets generally consist of an upper and a lower housing. The locking connection between the upper and lower housings is mostly achieved through direct snap-fit fastening. Due to the excessive pressure from the cables, opening the upper housing requires prying it open with a flathead screwdriver. This makes the entire cable locking and assembly process inconvenient, affecting the overall assembly efficiency of the network socket and the efficiency of subsequent maintenance and repair. Utility Model Content

In addition, in this application, the top surface of the first locking platform 902-1 is provided with a transition slope to facilitate the fastening assembly of the pressure plate and the first locking platform 902-1. As the pressure plate of the upper housing 901 cover is pressed down, it can follow the transition slope and the cooperation of the second pivot. The mounting plate 11 presses the backing plate 1202, and the mounting plate 11 flips slightly outward until the position of the first locking hole corresponds to the position of the first locking platform 902-1401. The first locking platform 902-1 is locked in the first locking hole under the elastic force of the backing plate 1202, thus completing the closing of the wire clamping cover 9.
