New Description: [New Technology Field] This creation is about a power line network device, especially a power line network signal coupler. [Prior Art] With the generalization and rapid development of personal computers and networks, the trend of erecting multiple computer devices in a space has also arisen; however, while enjoying the rapid development of the Internet, wired networks The difficulty and complexity of the physical installation and wiring will also make it more difficult to increase the number of computer equipment. In order to respond to the trend of modern people's aesthetics, the wireless network (Wireless Network) and the power line network (Homeplug) should be developed in the market. The so-called power line network technology is a communication technology that converts an Ethernet signal into a signal used by Homeplug and transmits it to the original power line in the building, and uses the power line to transmit data and voice signals. With the advantages of wiring, wide coverage, convenient connection and high transmission rate, the value of using power line data is getting more and more attention. Users using power line network technology only need to plug the power line network device into the market outlet to take advantage of the home. As a transmission medium for the Internet, the power line can directly use the power line to capture the Internet signal, thus eliminating the problem of messy wiring and insufficient network jacks.

In order to connect the scale signals of the computer equipment 16, the network unit 164 of the computer equipment 16 (all-network interface card) must cooperate with a network power converter μ, and the conventional power conversion is mostly connected to the Lecco type. The network power converter (p_line _erter, 18 includes a power supply unit 182, which is connected to the power line 1 through the power line 12 and electrically connected to the M318854) and converts the AC power of the power line 10 to the network power converter 18. The voltage is used for the network-to-power converter 18 to operate; after the network-to-power converter 18 takes the signal from the port of the power line 10 to extract the network signal, the money is transmitted to the network through the network. 164. However, in order to achieve the Homeplug architecture, the entire architecture needs to include two sets of power supply orders το 162 and 182, in order to construct a complete H〇meplug u and achieve its network. 坎一见第2 @,为Traditional knowledge Schematic diagram of the connected power 'network conversion architecture. As shown in the figure, the conventional internal power-to-network conversion architecture integrates the network power converter 18 into the computer device 16' to be combined with the printed circuit board. The power source is sent to the printed circuit board through the power supply unit 162, and then distributed by the printed circuit board to the network_power converter 18, and then, using a network «converter 18, the applicable power line 12, Connected with the power line, to extract the network signal in the transmission power line 1G', and then through the _ mirror/digital converter (Analog t0 Digital Converter, adc) 181, from the power line 1〇, about ι〇 The AC voltage of 〇volts to 240 volts is converted into a digital level, and the network-to-power converter 18 converts the digital level into a network signal for interpretation and application by a computer device. [New content] In view of this, the creation In response to the above problems, the present invention proposes a power line network signal converter that converts an AC power source containing a network signal into a low-voltage signal through a power-channel signal coupled to a power line, and secretly or Although he has the information in the multimedia media _ power line network thief transfer yuan to achieve - complete network. Electric brain (Ρ _ Γΐώ β converter, PLC) function. Another purpose of this creation is to provide a power line network signal The coupler, because of the power line network letter combination || lose $ signal is _ low-touch network health, so that computer equipment or other multimedia devices on the hardware cloth ride, no money when the power line network letter county When entering a computer or other multimedia device, there is a problem of maintaining a sufficient safety margin due to the AC power supply, thereby reducing the complexity of the hard disk and reducing the product's competitiveness. M318854 According to an embodiment of the present invention, a power line network signal coupler is provided, including: a coupling unit; a first transmission interface disposed at one end of a power line network signal coupler, and one end of the early transmission unit The electrical connection and a second transmission interface are disposed at the other end of the power line network signal coupler and are electrically connected to the other end of the coupling unit. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a power line network signal facer implemented by the present inventive concept will be described with reference to a preferred embodiment. Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a block diagram of a power line network signal coupler and an application connection diagram thereof according to an embodiment of the present inventive concept. In this embodiment, the power line network signal coupler 40 includes: a coupling unit 402; a first transmission interface 406 disposed at one end of the power line network signal coupler 40 and electrically connected to one end of the consuming unit 402 And a second transmission interface 408 is disposed at the other end of the power line network signal coupler 4 , and electrically connected to the other end of the coupling unit 402. In this embodiment, a user who wants to construct a network-power converter (PLC) must first prepare an electronic device 20 having a power line network number conversion unit 206, and implement the concept according to the present creative concept. The power line network signal coupler 40 only needs to electrically connect the first transmission "face 406 of the power line network signal coupler to the power line 3'. The second transmission interface 408 and the electronic device 2 are connected. The data-power line network signal conversion unit 206 is electrically connected, thereby constructing a complete network _ power converter (PLC) and achieving network connection. The power line network cooperates with the coupling unit 402 of the combiner 40, for example, she is configured to convert the AC power source (about (10) volts to 24 volts) containing the network signal from the power line 3 to synthesize the network signal. And through the second transmission interface 4〇8 'transfer to the electronic device port 2〇 power line network signal conversion section 2G6, peach power line network signal conversion single exchange Yihei road smart silk electronic miscellaneous 2q can · Luxin uses the channel unit 2G4 to interpret the network signal; wherein, the electronic equipment is connected to the power jack and the power line through the power cord 50 to obtain the power required by the electronic device 20 7 M318854, and the data The power source required for the operation of the power line network signal conversion unit 206 is supplied by the power unit 202 of the electronic device 20.
