Cable modem module and transmitter-receiver

1. A cable modem module device comprising:

a coaxial connector to transmit and receive high-frequency signals;

a circuit board to which the coaxial connector is attached to protrude from its periphery in a direction parallel to its surface; and

a first shield case formed in its portion corresponding to the coaxial connector with a cutout portion to avoid the coaxial connector so as to allow the circuit board to be housed from a direction perpendicular to the surface of the circuit board;

wherein the first shield case has a case which has sides in the form of a frame which are perpendicular to the surface of the circuit board and cover the periphery of the circuit board and is formed with the cutout portion to avoid the coaxial connector in a predetermined one of its sides which corresponds to the coaxial connector, and covers which cover the openings of the case enclosed with its sides in the form of a frame.

2. A cable modem module device according to claim 1 , wherein the circuit board includes an analog signal processing unit which transmits or receives high-frequency signals via the coaxial connector, a digital signal processing unit which digital-processes signals input to or output from the analog signal processing unit, and a shield case which houses the analog signal processing unit.

3. A cable modem module device according to claim 1 , wherein the cover has a shielding portion which shields part of the opening formed by the cutout portion of the case.

4. A cable modem module device according to claim 1 , further comprising terminals which are fixed to one of the sides of the case and have their one end portions bent in a direction in which they are inserted into through holes formed in the circuit board in housing the circuit board in the case from a direction perpendicular to the surface of the circuit board.

5. A transmitter-receiver comprising:

a cable modem module having a coaxial connector to transmit or receive high-frequency signals, a circuit board to which the coaxial connector is attached to protrude from its periphery in a direction parallel to its surface, and a first shield case formed in its portion corresponding to the coaxial connector with a cutout portion to avoid the coaxial connector so as to allow the circuit board to be housed from a direction perpendicular to the surface of the circuit board; and

a power supply unit which supplies power to the cable modem module,

wherein the cable modem module operates on power supplied from the power supply unit to transmit or receive high-frequency signals and

wherein the first shield case has a case which has sides in the form of a frame which are perpendicular to the surface of the circuit board and cover the periphery of the circuit board and is formed with the cutout portion to avoid the coaxial connector in a predetermined one of its sides which corresponds to the coaxial connector, and covers which cover the openings of the case enclosed with its sides in the form of a frame.

6. A transmitter-receiver according to claim 5 , wherein the cover has a shielding portion which shields part of the opening formed by the cutout portion of the case.

7. A transmitter-receiver according to claim 5 , further comprising terminals which are fixed to one of the sides of the case and have their one end portions bent in a direction in which they are inserted into through holes formed in the circuit board in housing the circuit board in the case from a direction perpendicular to the surface of the circuit board.

8. A transmitter-receiver according to claim 5 , wherein the circuit board includes an analog signal processing unit which transmits or receives high-frequency signals via the coaxial connector, a digital signal processing unit which digital-processes signals input to or output from the analog signal processing unit, and a shield case which houses the analog signal processing unit.
