View Patent ↗A high-speed signal transmission apparatus comprises: a housing; a plurality of daughter boards juxtaposed to one another in the housing; board-side connectors each provided on corresponding each of the juxtaposed daughter boards; and cable-side connectors fixed in the housing; wherein each of the board-side connectors is insertable/removable into/from corresponding each of the cable-side connectors, and wherein a cable group whose impedance matching can be achieved makes connection between the predetermined cable-side connectors.
1. A high-speed signal transmission apparatus comprising:
a housing;
a plurality of daughter boards juxtaposed to one another in the housing;
board-side connectors each provided on corresponding each of the juxtaposed daughter boards; and
cable-side connectors fixed in the housing;
wherein each of the board-side connectors is insertable/removable into/from corresponding each of the cable-side connectors, and
wherein a cable group whose impedance matching can be achieved makes connection between the predetermined cable-side connectors,
said each cable-side connector is formed by layering wafer-shaped connectors on one another, and
wherein rod-shaped fixing members are inserted into a plurality of positioning holes, with which each of the wafer-shaped connectors is provided, so that the wafer-shaped connectors are layered on one another and gathered together on a cable group basis to form a layered product, the cable group being used to connected between the cable-side connectors; and
the layered product into which the wafer-shaped connectors are gathered together is positioned and mounted to a stationary plate that is fixed to the housing.
2. The high-speed signal transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:
said cable group is constituted of a plurality of coaxial cables or a plurality of twinax cables.
3. The high-speed signal transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:
two or more sets of the board-side connectors and cable-side connectors into/from which the board-side connectors can be inserted/removed are provided for a predetermined daughter board; and a positioning mechanism for defining a position between the cable-side connectors so as to be suitable for a spacing between the board-side connectors, is provided in the housing.
4. The high-speed signal transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:
a daughter rail for guiding each of the plurality of daughter boards so that the board-side connector provided on each of the plurality of daughter boards can be inserted/removed into/from the cable-side connector fixed in the housing, is provided in the housing.
5. The high-speed signal transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:
said wafer-shaped connectors are layered on one another so that the layered wafer-shaped connectors are gathered together on a cable group basis to form a layered product, the cable group being used to connect between the cable-side connectors; and the layered product into which the wafer-shaped connectors are gathered together is positioned and mounted to a stationary plate that is fixed to the housing.
6. The high-speed signal transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein:
said each board-side connector is formed by layering wafer-shaped connectors on one another with the polarity of the wafer-shaped connectors reversed to that of the cable-side connector.
7. A high-speed signal transmission apparatus comprising:
a housing;
a plurality of daughter boards juxtaposed to one another in the housing;
board-side connectors each provided on corresponding each of the juxtaposed daughter boards; and
cable-side connectors fixed in the housing;
wherein each of the board-side connectors is insertable/removable into/from corresponding each of the cable-side connections, and
wherein a cable group whose impedance matching can be achieved makes connection between the predetermined cable-side connectors,
and wherein:
for the each cable-side connector, a GND surface and a signal line form a microstrip structure, a strip structure, or a coplanar structure, the GND surface being connected to an outer conductor of each cable constituting the cable group, the signal line being connected to an internal conductor of the each cable.
8. The high-speed signal transmission apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein:
said cable group is constituted of a plurality of coaxial cables or a plurality of twinax cables.
9. The high-speed signal transmission apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein:
two or more sets of the board-side connectors and cable-side connectors into/from which the board-side connectors can be inserted/removed are provide for a predetermined daughter board; and a positioning mechanism for defining a position between the cable-side connectors so as to be suitable for a spacing between the board-side connectors, is provided in the housing.
10. The high-speed signal transmission apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein:
a daughter rail for guiding each of the plurality of daughter boards so that the board-side connector provided on each of the plurality of daughter boards can be inserted/removed into/from the cable-side connector fixed in the housing, is provided in the housing.
