After being started, the second power portion 33 extracts the heat in the sealing room, exhausts the heat into the second internal air duct of the second heat exchanger through the second ventilation opening 216, and then returns the heat to the sealing room 21 through the third ventilation opening 217, to form internal circulation heat dissipation. The device is mounted in the support area, and may be in close contact with the third side plate 26, thereby helping remove the heat. Setting of the second heat exchanger further assists heat dissipation of the first heat exchanger, and heat dissipation of a communications device with a relatively large heat emission volume can be more efficient, thereby reducing damage to the device.
