It can convert 4G or 5G signals into WiFi signals, and can support multiple terminal devices 30 such as mobile phones, tablet computers, etc. Access the network.

In some embodiments, the customer premise equipment 100 includes a housing 11 and a circuit board (not shown) and a radio frequency system disposed in the housing 11 , and the radio frequency system is electrically connected to the circuit board. Further, in this embodiment, the housing 11 forms an installation cavity, and the circuit board and the radio frequency system are installed in the installation cavity, and the housing 11 plays the role of support, positioning and protection. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , the casing 11 is substantially cylindrical, and the appearance of the customer front-end equipment 100 is mainly represented by the casing 11 . In other embodiments, the housing 11 may have other shapes such as prismatic or the like. The circuit board may be provided with a plurality of interfaces 13 exposed to the housing 11 , and these interfaces 13 are electrically connected to the circuit board. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , the interface 13 includes a power interface 131 , a USB interface 133 , a network cable interface 135 , a telephone interface 136 and the like. The power interface 131 is used to connect an external power source to supply power to the customer premises equipment 100, the USB interface 133 can be used for data transmission between the customer premises equipment 10 and external equipment, and the telephone interface 136 can be used to connect an external fixed telephone. Of course, the USB interface 133 and the power interface 131 can be integrated into one body to simplify the arrangement of the interface 13 of the customer premise equipment 10 . The network cable interface 135 may further include a wired network access terminal and a wired network output terminal. The customer premises equipment 100 can be connected to the network through a wired network access end, and then connected to other devices through one or more wired network output ends.

In this embodiment, the customer premises equipment 100 can access a cellular network (also known as a mobile network) through a radio frequency system, and then convert it into a WiFi signal for External devices are connected to the network.

In some embodiments, the customer premises equipment 100 may implement network access by inserting a SIM card (ie, a plug-in subscriber identity card) without accessing the operator's broadband. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 , the card The seat 102 is used to carry a SIM card. The SIM card is connected to the customer's front-end equipment by inserting and removing the card holder, but usually the card holder belongs to the mechanical card holder. During the process of inserting and removing the SIM card, the card holder cannot recognize the SIM card. The problem is solved by setting an embedded subscriber identity card (embedded-SIM, eSIM) in the customer pre-installed equipment. The eSIM card is to directly embed the SIM card on the main chip of the customer-premises equipment, rather than as a separate removable Parts are added to the customer's front-end equipment, and the user does not need to insert a SIM card.

The controller 103 can control the embedded user identification card 101 to communicate if the plug-in user identification card 104 is not inserted into the card holder 102 when the controller 103 is activated; the controller 103 can also be activated when the controller 103 is activated. When the plug-in user identification card 104 is inserted into the card holder 102, the plug-in user identification card 104 can be controlled to communicate. Wherein, controlling the embedded user identification card 101 or the plug-in user identification card 104 to communicate can be understood as establishing an electrical connection relationship between the controller 103 and the embedded user identification card 101 or the plug-in user identification card 104, so as to pass the embedded user identification card 104. 101 or plug-in subscriber identity card 104 to communicate.

It can be understood that the first level may be higher than the second level, for example, the first level is a high level, and the second level is a low level; the first level may also be lower than the second level, For example, the first level is a low level, and the second level is a high level, which is not specifically limited here, and may be specifically limited according to the actual situation.

It should be noted that the card holder 102 may include a detection elastic sheet, and the detection elastic sheet may include two states. When the plug-in user identification card 104 is not inserted into the card holder 102, the detection elastic sheet is not deformed and is in the first state; When the plug-in user identification card 104 is inserted into the card holder 102, the elastic deformation is generated by the detection elastic piece due to the pressing of the plug-in user identification card 104, and the second state is obtained. Wherein, the first detection pin 1021 can be set on the detection elastic sheet. When the detection elastic sheet is in the first state, the first detection pin 1021 is in a low level state at this time. The detection pin 1031 is electrically connected, the first detection pin 1021 can send a low level signal to the second detection pin 1031, and the controller 103 can detect the level state of the second detection pin 1031, that is, the low level state ; When the detection shrapnel is in the second state, the first detection pin 1021 is in a high-level state, the first detection pin 1021 can send a high-level signal to the second detection pin 1031, and the controller 103 can detect to the level state of the second detection pin 1031, that is, the high level state. Thus, the level state of the first detection pin 1021 can be determined through the level state of the second detection pin 1031 , and then it is determined whether the plug-in subscriber identification card 104 is inserted into the card holder 102 .

Or in the conventional device detection process, the plug-in user identification card 104 can be inserted into the card holder 102 when the electronic device 100 is powered on, so as to realize the above functions through the function of the plug-in user identification card 104; When renting the electronic device 100 of user A for Internet access requirements, user A does not need to consider the traffic consumed by user B of the embedded user identification card 101 in the electronic device 100 when using the electronic device 100, and user B can insert his own plug-in user identification card 104 Implement network connection and other functional operations.

Please refer to FIG. 5. FIG. 5 is a fourth structural block diagram of the electronic device provided by the embodiment of the present application. The controller 103 may include a first pin 1032 , a second pin 1033 , a third pin 1034 , a fourth pin 1035 , a fifth pin 1036 and a sixth pin 1037 . The embedded subscriber identification card 101 may include a seventh pin 1011 , an eighth pin 1012 and a ninth pin 1013 . The plug-in subscriber identification card 104 may include a tenth pin 1041 , an eleventh pin 1042 and a twelfth pin 1043 . The first bus 105 may include three lines, namely connection line 1 , connection line 2 and connection line 3 . The second bus 106 may also include three lines, which are connection line 4 , connection line 5 and connection line 6 respectively. As shown in FIG. 5 , the plug-in user identification card 104 exists in the card holder 102 in the form of dotted lines, which means that the plug-in user identification card 104 can be inserted into the card holder 102 or not.

It should be noted that, when the controller 103 starts up, if the plug-in user identification card 104 is not inserted into the card holder 102, the first pin 1032 of the controller 103, the connection line 1 of the first bus 105 and the embedded user identification card 101 The seventh pin 1011 is electrically connected, the second pin 1033, the connecting line 2 and the eighth pin 1012 are electrically connected, the third pin 1034, the connecting line 3 and the ninth pin 1013 are electrically connected, so as to pass the connecting line 1 , connecting line 2 and connecting line 3 control the embedded user identification card 101 to communicate.

When the controller 103 starts up, if the plug-in user identification card 104 is inserted into the card holder 102 , the fourth pin 1035 of the controller 103 , the connecting line 4 of the second bus 106 and the tenth pin of the plug-in user identification card 104 1041 is electrically connected, the fifth pin 1036, the connection line 5 and the eleventh pin 1042 are electrically connected, the sixth pin 1037, the connection line 6 and the twelfth pin 1043 are electrically connected, and the connection line 4 and the connection line 5 are electrically connected And the connection line 6 controls the plug-in subscriber identity card 104 to communicate.

It should be noted that the above-mentioned switching between the embedded user identification card 101 and the plug-in user identification card 104 by the controller 103 needs to be realized during the start-up process of the controller 103, that is, after the start-up of the controller 103 is completed, according to the plug-in user The identification card 104 is inserted into or not inserted into the card holder 102 to control the plug-in subscriber identification card 104 or the embedded subscriber identification card 101 to communicate until the controller 103 is restarted. That is to say, the condition for realizing the switch between the plug-in user identification card 104 and the embedded user identification card 101 is to start the process of the controller 103 each time, and when it is determined to select the plug-in user identification card 104 or the embedded user identification card After the 101 communication, the electronic device 100 will keep working in the communication state of the user identification card. If the user wants to switch the user identification card, the controller 103 needs to be restarted, and the switching cannot be realized when the controller 103 is in the current working state. That is, if the user chooses to use the embedded subscriber identity card 101 for communication, in the current communication state of the electronic device 100, even if the plug-in subscriber identity card 104 is inserted or pulled out, the controller 103 still keeps controlling the embedded subscriber identity card 101 to communicate.

Specifically, when the controller 103 is started up, if the plug-in subscriber identity card 104 is inserted into the deck 102, the plug-in subscriber identity card 104 is controlled to communicate, and before the controller 103 is restarted, the electronic device 100 will maintain the use of the plug-in user identity card The identification card 104 works; if the plug-in user identification card 104 is not inserted into the deck 102, the embedded user identification card 101 is controlled to communicate, and the electronic device 100 will maintain the embedded user identification card 101 until the controller 103 is restarted. In operation, even if the plug-in user identity card 104 is inserted into or pulled out from the card holder 102 during the operation of the embedded user identity card 101, the controller 103 will not trigger the switch to control the plug-in user identity card 104 to communicate.

In the related art, when the electronic device 100 chooses to use the embedded subscriber identity card 100 for communication, if the user inserts and unplugs the plug-in subscriber identity card 104, the controller 103 may briefly re-select the subscriber identity card. As a result, the communication state of the electronic device 100 is affected. It can be understood that, in this embodiment, by implementing the switching between the embedded subscriber identity card 101 and the plug-in subscriber identity card 104 during the startup process of the controller 103, it is not necessary to consider the presence of the electronic device 100 in the embedded subscriber identity card 101. In the state of communication, the plug-in subscriber identity card 104 may be inserted into or removed from the card holder 102, so that the communication state of the electronic device 100 can be guaranteed to be stable.

Please refer to FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a fifth structural block diagram of the electronic device provided by the embodiment of the present application. The electronic device 100 further includes a power supply chip 107 , which is electrically connected to the embedded user identification card 101 and the plug-in user identification card 104 . The power supply chip 107 may also be electrically connected to the controller 103 .

Wherein, when it is detected that the plug-in user identification card 104 is not inserted into the card holder 102, the power supply chip 107 supplies power to the embedded user identification card, and stops supplying power to the plug-in user identification card 104, so that the controller 103 controls the embedded user identification card. When it is detected that the plug-in user identification card 104 is inserted into the card holder 102, the power supply chip 107 supplies power to the plug-in user identification card 104, and stops supplying power to the embedded user identification card 101, so that the controller 103 controls the insertion form subscriber identity card 104 to communicate. It can be understood that the device that usually supplies power to the functional device is a battery, and the power supply chip 107 can be understood as a battery or a chip that distributes power to the battery. It should be noted that the power supply chip 107 supplies power to the plug-in user identification card 104 after the plug-in user identification card 104 is inserted into the card holder 102 .

In addition, it should be noted that after the start-up of the controller 103 is completed, the plug-in user identification card 104 or the embedded user identification sheet 101 is controlled to communicate according to whether the plug-in user identification card 104 is inserted or not inserted into the card holder 102 until the 103 Controller reboots. That is, when the controller 103 accesses the embedded user identification card 101, the connection relationship of the embedded user identification card 101 is maintained until the controller 103 restarts; when the controller 103 accesses the plug-in user identification card 104, the plug-in user The connection relationship of the identification card 104 is maintained until the controller 103 is restarted. The connection relationship of the embedded subscriber identity card 101 can be understood as the controller 103 controlling the embedded subscriber identity card 101 to communicate, and the connection relationship of the plug-in subscriber identity card 104 can be understood as the controller 103 controlling the plug-in subscriber identity card 104 to communicate.

It can be understood that the switching between the embedded user identification card 101 and the plug-in user identification card 104 by the controller 103 needs to be realized during the start-up process of the controller 103, that is, after the controller 103 is started up, according to the plug-in user identification card 104 inserting or not inserting the card holder 102 corresponds to control the plug-in subscriber identification card 104 or the embedded subscriber identification card 101 to communicate until the controller 103 is restarted. That is to say, when the controller 103 is activated, if the plug-in user identification card 104 is inserted into the card holder 102, the plug-in user identification card 104 is controlled to communicate, and before the controller 103 is restarted, the electronic device 100 will maintain the use of the plug-in user identification card 100. The user identification card 104 works; if the plug-in user identification card 104 is not inserted into the deck 102, the embedded user identification card 101 is controlled to communicate, and the electronic device 100 will maintain the embedded user identification before restarting the controller 103 When the card 101 is working, even if the plug-in user identification card 104 is inserted into the card holder 102 during the operation of the embedded user identification card 101, the controller 103 will not trigger the switching of the plug-in user identification card 104 to the electronic device. 100.
