DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0042] First, an application scenario of this application is described. Electronic devices such as a wireless access point (AP) device and a network camera are usually installed in an area such as an enterprise campus, an indoor ceiling, or a building wall. Because the devices are in distributed layout, obtaining power in a nearby manner increases additional user costs. Therefore, a power over Ethernet (POE) manner is usually used to supply power for the electronic devices.

[0043] When the power over Ethernet manner is used, a conventional optical module is disposed on the electronic device to connect to an optical fiber connector, and an additional POE interface further needs to be disposed on the electronic device to connect to an Ethernet connector. However, the additional POE interface disposed on the electronic device increases complexity of a structure of the electronic device, and increases a size of the electronic device.

[0044] To resolve this problem, in the conventional technology, light and electricity are combined to form an integrated connection solution. However, in the integrated connection solution of an electrical connection socket 10 and an optical module 20 shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, an upper signal terminal 103 in the electrical connection socket 10 is easily interfered by a power supply pulse of a power terminal 102. In addition, in the solution shown in FIG. 3, when the electrical connection socket 10 is matched with a common module with only a signal transmission function, a minimum distance a2 between the exposed power terminal 102 in the electrical connection socket 10 and a metal housing 201′ in the common module is also very small. The electrical connection socket 10 does not meet a safety requirement.

[0045] Based on the application scenario, this application provides an electronic device, so that all mechanical parts in the electronic device meet safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards.

[0046] Terms used in the following embodiments are merely intended to describe specific embodiments, but are not intended to limit this application. The terms “one”, “a” and “this” of singular forms used in this specification and the appended claims of this application are also intended to include expressions such as “one or more”, unless otherwise specified in the context clearly.

[0047] Reference to “an embodiment”, “some embodiments”, or the like described in this specification indicates that one or more embodiments of this application include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described with reference to embodiments. Therefore, statements such as “in an embodiment”, “in some embodiments”, “in some other embodiments”, and “in other embodiments” that appear at different places in this specification do not necessarily mean referring to a same embodiment. Instead, the statements mean “one or more but not all of embodiments”, unless otherwise specifically emphasized in another manner. The terms “include”, “have”, and their variants all mean “include but are not limited to”, unless otherwise specifically emphasized in another manner.

[0048] The following clearly and describes the technical solutions in embodiments of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings in embodiments of this application.

[0049] FIG. 4 shows a structure of an electronic device 01 according to an embodiment of this application. FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of a cross-sectional structure of a plane M in FIG. 4. It can be learned from the structures shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 that the electronic device 01 includes an electrical connection socket 1, a photoelectric module 2, and a cage 3. The electrical connection socket 1 and the photoelectric module 2 are disposed in a cavity B of the cage 3. One end of the photoelectric module 2 is connected to the electrical connection socket 1, and power and an electrical signal may be transmitted between the electrical connection socket 1 and the photoelectric module. It should be understood that an optical fiber interface and a power supply interface (not shown in the figure) are disposed at the other end of the photoelectric module 2. The cavity B is adapted to a structure of the electrical connection socket 1, and the cavity B may be a two-layer structure shown in FIG. 4, or may be a single-layer structure. In FIG. 4, there are a large quantity of cavities B. Therefore, FIG. 4 shows only an example, and not all cavities B are marked. It should be noted that the quantity of cavities B is not limited to six shown in FIG. 4, and another quantity may be set based on a requirement. Details are not described herein.

[0050] In the structure shown in FIG. 4, an opening is disposed at one end of the cage 3, so that the photoelectric module 2 is plugged into the cavity B from the opening along a first direction, to match with the electrical connection socket 1 disposed in the cavity B of the cage 3. It should be noted that a depth of the cavity B in the first direction along which the photoelectric module 2 and the electrical connection socket 1 are plugged matches a length after the photoelectric module 2 is connected to the electrical connection socket 1.

[0051] To more clearly and intuitively indicate a connection relationship between the electrical connection socket 1 and the photoelectric module 2, a structure in FIG. 6 is obtained after the cage 3 of the electronic device 01 shown in FIG. 4 is removed. FIG. 7 shows an adaptation process of the electrical connection socket 1 and the photoelectric module 2. When the photoelectric module 2 is matched with the electrical connection socket 1, the photoelectric module 2 is plugged along the first direction in FIG. 7.

[0052] FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of a structure of the electrical connection socket 1 in FIG. 5. In the structure shown in FIG. 8, the electrical connection socket 1 includes an insulated substrate 11. For example, the insulated substrate 11 may be prepared by using one or more materials of rubber, resin, or another insulated material. As shown in FIG. 8, the insulated substrate 11 has an upper surface S1, a lower surface S2, and a side surface used to match with a to-be-plugged module. To facilitate plugging between the photoelectric module 2 and the electrical connection socket 1 in FIG. 5, the upper surface S1 and the lower surface S2 of the insulated substrate 11 may be disposed in parallel with each other. In FIG. 8, a plane N is perpendicular to the upper surface S1 and the lower surface S2 of the insulated substrate 11, and a plane O is parallel to the upper surface S1 and the lower surface S2 of the insulated substrate 11.

[0053] FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram of a cross-sectional structure of the plane N in FIG. 8. With reference to FIG. 8, in the structure shown in FIG. 9, the electrical connection socket 1 includes a plug portion Q1 and a plug portion Q2, the plane O is a central surface of the electrical connection socket 1, and the plug portion Q1 and the plug portion Q2 are symmetrically disposed relative to the central surface 0.

[0054] The following describes in detail a structure of the plug portion Q1. With reference to FIG. 8, in the structure shown in FIG. 9, the plug portion Q1 includes two power terminals 111 and an electrical signal slot 112. A connection port of the power terminal 111 is located on a side surface P1 of the insulated substrate 11, and an opening of the electrical signal slot 112 is located on a side surface P2 of the insulated substrate 11. It should be understood that, in the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this application, connection ports for matching the power terminal 111 with the electrical signal slot 112 face a same side of the insulated substrate 11.

[0055] It should be understood that a quantity of power terminals 111 in the plug portion Q1 is not limited to two shown in FIG. 4, and a minimum quantity is two. A specific quantity of power terminals 111 may be designed based on a requirement. Details are not described herein.

[0056] In FIG. 9, for example, the power terminal 111 in the plug portion Q1 may be designed as a vertical sheet-like structure. Specifically, the power terminal 111 has a connection section L, and a connection port of the connection section L is located on the side surface P1 of the insulated substrate 11. It should be noted that an extension direction of the connection section L is parallel to an extension direction of the electrical signal slot 112, and an arrangement direction of the connection section L and the electrical signal slot 112 is perpendicular to the lower surface S1 of the insulated substrate 11. Therefore, the connection section L of the power terminal 111 and the electrical signal slot 112 are arranged vertically. In view of this, a distance between the connection section and the electrical signal slot 112 may be increased by adjusting a position of the connection section L of the power terminal 111, to improve an EMC capability of the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this embodiment of this application, so that the electrical connection socket can meet an EMC certification standard.

[0057] In the structure shown in FIG. 9, the electrical signal slot 112 in the plug portion Q1 includes a first inner surface 1121 and a second inner surface 1122 that are disposed opposite to each other. The first inner surface 1121 is opposite to the second inner surface 1122 (the first inner surface 1121 is vertically opposite to the second inner surface 1122 in FIG. 9), an upper signal pin 1123 is disposed on the first inner surface 1121, and a lower signal pin 1124 is disposed on the second inner surface 1122. It should be understood that a quantity of upper signal pins 1123 disposed on the first inner surface 1121 may be set to one or more based on a requirement. Similarly, a quantity of lower signal pins 1124 of the second inner surface 1122 may be set to one or more based on a requirement. Details are not described herein.

[0058] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, one end of each upper signal pin 1123 is located on the first inner surface 1121, and the other end extends from an interior of the insulated substrate 11 to the lower surface S2 of the insulated substrate 11. One end of each lower signal pin 1124 is located on the second inner surface 1122, and the other end extends from the interior of the insulated substrate 11 to the lower surface S2 of the insulated substrate 11.

[0059] It should be understood that a minimum distance between the connection section L and the upper signal pin 1123 is H, and the distance H may be designed to increase, to avoid interference of a power supply pulse of the power terminal 111 when the upper signal pin 1123 transmits a high-speed signal at a transmission rate of more than 10 Gbps. This can improve the EMC capability of the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this embodiment of this application, so that the electrical connection socket 1 can meet the EMC certification standard. For example, H may be set to be greater than 1.4 mm. It should be noted that, when the electrical connection socket 1 is matched with the photoelectric module 2 provided in this embodiment of this application, the upper signal pin 1123 in the electrical signal slot 112 bounces up a specific distance in a direction close to the upper surface S1. The minimum distance between the connection section L and the upper signal pin 1123 is a minimum distance between the connection section L and the upper signal pin 1123 after the upper signal pin bounces up.

[0060] It is clear that the structure of the connection section L of the power terminal 111 is not limited to the structure in FIG. 9. FIG. 9 is merely a schematic diagram of division to show the minimum distance H between the power terminal 111 and the upper signal pin 1123.

[0061] When the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this application is matched with the photoelectric module 2 provided in this application, because the photoelectric module 2 is adapted to the structure of the electrical connection socket 1, power and an electrical signal can be transmitted between the photoelectric module 2 and the electrical connection socket 1. A specific structure of the photoelectric module 2 provided in this application is described in detail subsequently.

[0062] It is clear that the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this application can be connected to the photoelectric module 2 provided in this application, and can further be applied to various encapsulation interface modules, for example, a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) encapsulated optical module, an electrical interface module, and a quad small form-factor pluggable (QSFP) encapsulated optical module. Specifically, the electrical signal slot 112 in the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this application can be adapted to various types of to-be-plugged modules.

[0063] When the to-be-plugged module is a common module 2′ shown in FIG. 10 (not the photoelectric module 2 provided in this application), an electrical signal terminal 21′ in the to-be-plugged module is plugged into the electrical signal slot 112 in the electrical connection socket 1, to perform signal transmission. Because the common module 2′ is not provided with a power supply connection structure, the common module 2′ is not connected to the power terminal 111 in the electrical connection socket 1. It should be understood that, because the power terminal 111 in the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this application is disposed in the insulated substrate 11, and the connection port of the connection section L is located on the side surface P1 of the insulated substrate 11, a distance d between a metal housing 22′ in the common module 2′ and the connection section L may be increased in a matching direction, to meet a minimum safety isolation distance requirement of 1.4 mm between a 48 V power terminal 111 and the ground, and meet the EMC standard.

[0064] It is clear that as a structure shown in FIG. 11, a concave portion G whose opening is located on the side surface P1 is disposed on the insulated substrate 11, and the connection port of the connection section L is disposed on a bottom of the concave portion G. It should be understood that, when the electrical connection socket 1 is matched with the common module 2′, in the structure shown in FIG. 11, a distance between the metal housing 22′ in the common module 2′ and the connection section L includes both the distance d and a depth d′ of the concave portion G. In other words, the distance between the metal housing 22′ in the common module 2′ and the power terminal 111 can further be increased in the matching direction, to better meet the minimum safety isolation distance requirement of 1.4 mm between the 48 V power terminal 111 and the ground, and meet the EMC standard.

[0065] The plug portion Q1 and the plug portion Q2 are symmetrically disposed relative to the central surface 0, the structure in the plug portion Q2 and the structure in the plug portion Q1 are in a “mirror” state. Therefore, the structure inside the plug portion Q2 is not further described herein.

[0066] In addition, the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this application may alternatively include only the plug portion Q1. Specifically, in a structure shown in FIG. 12, the power terminal 111, the upper signal pin 1123, and the lower signal pin 1124 are led out from the insulated substrate 11, and fastened to a circuit board 4 through welding or crimping, to form an electrical connection. It should be understood that, when the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this application includes only the plug portion Q1, the cage 3 shown in FIG. 4 is of a single-layer structure.

[0067] It should be noted that in the structure shown in FIG. 12, both the upper signal pin 1123 and the lower signal pin 1124 are led out from a back end of the lower surface S2 through a metal lead. It is clear that the lower signal pin 1124 may be led out from the front end of the lower surface S2 in the structure shown in FIG. 13, to facilitate welding. It should be understood that lead-out locations of the upper signal pin 1123 and the lower signal pin 1124 may be set based on a requirement. Details are not described herein. It should be noted that the “front end” and the “back end” are relative concepts. The “front end” is a location in which the lower surface S2 is close to the side surface. Correspondingly, the “back end” is a location in which the lower surface S2 is away from the side surface.

[0068] It is clear that, in the structure shown in FIG. 14, an included angle may alternatively exist between the extension direction of the electrical signal slot 122 and the lower surface S2 of the insulated substrate 11. FIG. 15 is a cross-sectional view of N in FIG. 14. It can be clearly seen from the structure shown in FIG. 15 that the extension direction of the connection section L is parallel to the extension direction of the electrical signal slot 112, and neither of the extension directions is parallel to the lower surface S2 of the insulated substrate 11. It should be understood that the included angle between the extension direction of the electrical signal slot 112 and the lower surface S2 of the insulated substrate 11 in FIG. 15 may be designed based on a requirement. Details are not described herein.

[0069] In addition, the insulated substrate 11 may be disposed as two separate parts. Specifically, in a structure shown in FIG. 16, the power terminal 111 is disposed on a first insulated substrate 11a, and a second insulated substrate 11b is provided with the electrical signal slot 112. During assembly, the power terminal 111 and the electrical signal slot 112 in the electrical connection socket 1 may be disposed based on a requirement. It should be understood that, in the electrical connection socket 1 shown in FIG. 10, the insulated substrate 11 may alternatively be disposed as two independent parts. In other words, the power terminals 111 in the plug portion Q1 and the plug portion Q2 are disposed on one insulated substrate, and the electrical signal slots 112 in the plug portion Q1 and the plug portion Q2 are disposed on another insulated substrate. Specific structure setting is not described herein.

[0070] FIG. 17 is an exploded view of the photoelectric module 2 in FIG. 5. The photoelectric module 2 includes a housing 21, a circuit board 22, two power terminals 23, and a flexible circuit board 24. One end of each power terminal 23 extends from a front end of the housing 21, another end is connected to the flexible circuit board 24, and each power terminal 23 is insulated from the housing 21. An electrical signal terminal 221 is disposed on one end of the circuit board 22. It should be understood that a quantity of power terminals 23 disposed on the photoelectric module 2 may be set based on a requirement. Details are not described herein. After the components in FIG. 17 are assembled, a structure in FIG. 18 is formed. FIG. 18 shows a state in which each power terminal 23 extends from the housing 21.

[0071] When the photoelectric module 2 provided in this embodiment of this application is matched with the electrical connection socket 1, and the electrical connection socket 1 is the electrical connection socket 1 shown in FIG. 9 in this application, the power terminals 23 in the photoelectric module 2 one-to-one correspond to the power terminals 111 in the electrical connection socket 1 shown in FIG. 9, and each power terminal 23 in the photoelectric module 2 extends into the connection sections L, that one-to-one correspond to the power terminals 23, of the electrical connection socket 1, to transmit power between the photoelectric module 2 and the electrical connection socket 1. In addition, the electrical signal terminal 221 in the photoelectric module 2 is connected to the electrical signal slot 112 in the electrical connection socket 1, to transmit a signal.

[0072] During specific setting, because a preparation material of the housing 21 is usually metal, an insulated structure between the power terminal 23 and the housing 21 may be shown in FIG. 19. An insulated substrate 25 may be separately disposed, to separate each power terminal 23 from the housing 21 by using the insulated substrate 25. The insulated substrate 25 may be prepared by using one or more materials of rubber, resin, or another insulated material.

[0073] The photoelectric module 2 provided in this embodiment of this application may be matched with the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this embodiment of this application, and may further be connected to a common electrical connection socket 1′ (a socket different from the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this embodiment of this application is defined as a common electrical connection socket 1′) shown in FIG. 20. Specifically, in the structure shown in FIG. 20, the electrical signal terminal 221 in the photoelectric module 2 is electrically connected to the common electrical connection socket 1′ to implement electrical signal transmission. The power terminal 23 in the photoelectric module 2 does not match a power terminal 11′ in the common electrical connection socket 1′, and power is not transmitted. It should be understood that the insulated substrate 25 in the photoelectric module 2 covers an exposed portion of the power terminal 11′, to isolate the exposed portion from the housing 21 in the photoelectric module 2.

[0074] When the photoelectric module 2 provided in this embodiment of this application is matched with the common electrical connection socket 1′, the power terminal 23 in the photoelectric module 2 abuts against a side surface of the common electrical connection socket 1′. In view of this, the power terminal 23 shown in FIG. 20 may be disposed as a telescopic structure.

[0075] It is clear that the common electrical connection socket 1′ is not limited to the structure in FIG. 20, and is merely an example for schematic descriptions. For example, the photoelectric module 2 provided in this application may alternatively be matched with the common electrical connection socket 1′ shown in FIG. 21. The common electrical connection socket 1′ in FIG. 21 has only a signal connection function.

[0076] It should be understood that, when the photoelectric module 2 provided in this application is matched with the electrical connection socket 1 provided in this application, the electrical connection socket 1 may have a different electrical signal slot 112 based on a different model of the electrical signal terminal 221 in the photoelectric module 2. For example, when the electrical signal terminal 221 in the photoelectric module 2 is a multi-source agreement (MSA) edge connector terminal, the electrical signal slot 112 in the electrical connection socket 1 may be an MSA edge connector slot.

[0077] It should be noted that, the photoelectric module 2 provided in this application may be prepared by adding at least one pair of telescopic elastic power terminals 23 based on a current standard small form-factor pluggable SFP module.

[0078] The foregoing descriptions are merely specific implementations of this application, but are not intended to limit the protection scope of this application. Any variation or replacement readily figured out by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application shall fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this application shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
