发明内容
本申请提供了一种连接器组件、连接器、网络设备和制造方法,以提高屏蔽效果。所述技术方案如下:
第一方面,本申请提供了一种连接器组件,包括:第一屏蔽结构、第二屏蔽结构、M个第一接地屏蔽端子和N个第一差分对信号端子,M=N+1,N为大于1的整数,第一屏蔽结构和第二屏蔽结构相对设置。该M个第一接地屏蔽端子位于第一屏蔽结构和第二屏蔽结构之间,并在第一屏蔽结构和第二屏蔽结构之间形成N个相互隔离的第一屏蔽通道。该N个第一差分对信号端子分别设置在N个第一屏蔽通道中。由于在第一屏蔽结构和第二屏蔽结构之间形成N个相互隔离的第一屏蔽通道,该N个第一差分对信号端子分别设置在N个第一屏蔽通道中,这样对于任一个第一屏蔽通道和该任一个第一屏蔽通道内的第一差分对信号端子,该任一个第一屏蔽通道可以屏蔽该第一差分对信端子产生的信号干扰,以减小对其他N-1个第一差分对信号端子产生的干扰强度,从而提高了屏蔽效果。

在另一种可能的实现方式中,针对任一个分隔墙,任一个分隔墙设有容纳空间,第一屏蔽片中设有与容纳空间对齐的第一开口,第二屏蔽片中设有与容纳空间对齐的第二开口,第一开口、容纳空间和第二开口中设有填充墙。由于在分隔墙中填充有填充墙,通过填充墙可以增加第一屏蔽通道屏蔽的效果。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,填充墙为通过焊接材料在所述第一开口、容纳空间和第二开口中焊接形成的部件。由于填充墙是焊接形成的部件,即通过焊接形成连接器组件,使连接器组件连接的更加稳定,以及使第一屏蔽通道屏蔽的效果更高。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,焊接材料为焊接峰值温度大于或等于100度且小于或等于320度的锡膏材料。这样焊接的温度较低,避免破坏第一接地屏蔽端子表面的镀层以及载体的形状。
在另一种可能的实现方式中,针对任一个第一屏蔽通道,位于任一个第一屏蔽通道中的第一差分对信号端子与第一屏蔽片之间设有第一绝缘部件,以及与所述第二屏蔽片之间设有第二绝缘部件。这样有效地避免第一差分对信号端子与第一屏蔽片和第二屏蔽片接触。

下面将结合附图对本申请实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
通信设备中往往包括多个印制电路板(printed circuit board,PCB),对于存在连接关系的两个PCB,该两个PCB往往通过两个连接器相连。参见图1,为了便于说明称该两个连接器分别为第一连接器A1(又可称为公连接器)和第二连接器A2(又可称为母连接器),称该两个PCB分别为第一PCBA3和第二PCBA4,第一连接器A1与第一PCBA3相连,第二连接器A2与第二PCBA4相连,第一连接器A1与第二连接器A2相连,如此实现通过该两个连接器连接了两个PCB。
