Description

Multi-input connector

This creation relates to a multi-input connector that can be connected to the upper, lower, left, and right end faces.

In the past, the back-end directions of information connectors (such as Keystone Jack) were mostly fixed in one direction, and most of them were horizontal outlets. However, this type of outlet often encounters a problem, that is, when the information connector When assembled in panels and boxes, the length of the information connector is almost equal to the length of the panel to the bottom of the box.

When some cable wires must be inserted into the left and right sides of the box, the cable wire is bound to be bent at 90 degrees without a radius of curvature, and then assembled into the information connector; however, according to the transmission theory in the general electromagnetic wave theory, When the radius of curvature of the conductor is smaller, it will affect the rate of electromagnetic transmission and easily cause scattering of electromagnetic waves. In the general network route, there are 8 transmission core wires in the mesh route, and the two pairs are twisted into four pairs of twisted wires. When the mesh route is bent 90 degrees without a radius of curvature, each core wire will generate electromagnetic wave scattering, so that the electromagnetic wave between the eight core wires will greatly increase, which will cause the characteristics of network transmission. decline.

Therefore, according to the characteristics of the above information connector, in order to avoid the influence of the wire bending, the subsequent information connectors are improved to directly exit from the side to avoid the problem of bending the wire.

However, there are disadvantages in that there are disadvantages. For example, when two information connectors are arranged side by side, the same outgoing direction will be interfered with, which is one; When the connector uses two different directions, the problem that will be encountered is that the general network route enters the same side while entering the box, and the same side exits. Therefore, the information connector of the other direction is required. Reversing the mesh route 180 degrees can cause the same side to enter the line, which is the second disadvantage.

Another disadvantage is that the use of such information connectors can only be applied to the form of panels and boxes. If the information connector needs to be used in a general machine room, this side outlet is not required. The type of information connector is much less common.

In view of the shortcomings of the above information connector, U.S. Patent No. 7,967,642, which is owned by U.S. 3M, provides a feasible solution. The patent discloses the following: "A connector for use in the field of communication, comprising: a rectangular opening having a mating connector insertable at one end thereof, a plurality of contacts connectable to the plurality of core wires, and a guide piece connected to the opposite side of the connector mating connector when inserted The guide piece has three core wire openings disposed on an outer side surface of the guide piece, and is exposed at an outer side of the connector away from the contact point, wherein the core wire opening faces in different directions, wherein The housing provides at least one rotary drive tab for pushing the guide toward the connector.

Another U.S. Patent No. 8,376,779 to 3M discloses the following: "A connector in the field of communication, comprising: a housing in which a plurality of contacts are disposed and can be connected to the core in the connector An inner connection, a guide piece having a plurality of core wire openings disposed at a rear end of the housing, and a connector shielding device at a rear end of the connector and having an entry portion and the guide piece One of the openings is arranged, and an extension device is connected to the cable of the cable at the entrance portion, Wherein the connector has at least three core wire openings, each core wire opening adapted to receive at least two core wires and exposed from an outer side of the connector away from the contacts, the core wire openings being disposed in at least three directions. "

The above-mentioned U.S. Patent No. 7,967,642 describes an outlet hole having three directions at the rear end, and the three directions are the upper, middle and lower directions, respectively.

In addition, U.S. Patent No. 8,376,779 further states that at least three of the outlet holes are provided with an outer casing having an electromagnetic wave shielding effect.

Although the above-mentioned U.S. patent case improves the disadvantages caused by the above-mentioned bent cable wire, these existing solutions are only for the upper, middle and lower directions, but when such information connectors are matched with the panel and the box, the incoming line The direction is not necessarily from the upper and lower lines of the information connector, and may be from the left and right sides of the box, and at this time, even if the prior art contents as described above are applied, the same problem as described above is returned.

The main purpose of this creation is to provide a multi-input connector that can effectively prevent the degradation of cable transmission characteristics.
