Abstract

The present invention relates to a communication module assembly. The present invention is a communication module assembly which is electrically connected to a communication device and is supplied with power and signal, and can include a connection port unit that is supplied with the power and the signal from the communication device; a cable connection portion which is provided in the connection port unit, and to which cables electrically connected to the communication device is connected; a plurality of communication modules that is stacked on and connected to the connection port unit in a plug-in type; and a guide for guiding the communication module such that the communication modules are connected to the connection port unit in a central direction.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A communication module assembly which is electrically connected to a communication device and is supplied with power and signal, comprising:
a connection port unit that is supplied with the power and the signal from the communication device;
a cable connection portion which is provided in the connection port unit, and to which cable electrically connected to the communication device is connected; and
a communication module directly connected to the connection port unit in a plug-in type;
wherein the connection port unit is provided with a plurality of connection ports, and at least one of the connection ports is movable in at least one axial direction.

2. The communication module assembly of claim 1 , wherein the connection port unit is constituted by a pair, and both sides of the communication module are connected to the connection port unit, respectively.

3. The communication module assembly of claim 1 , wherein a heat sink for heat dissipation is installed to be adjacent to the communication module, and the connection port unit is fixedly coupled to the heat sink.

4. The communication module assembly of claim 1 , furt her comprising:
a guide for guiding the communication module such that the communication module is connected to a fixed position of the connection port unit.

5. The communication module assembly of claim 4 , wherein the guide includes guide protrusions provided to protrude from one end of the communication module; and a guide bracket to support lower ends of the guide protrusions.

6. The communication module assembly of claim 5 , wherein both side ends of the guide protrusions are formed to be inclined so as to approach each other as they go downward, and the guide bracket is formed to correspond to the guide protrusions.

7. The communication module assembly of claim 1 , wherein the connection port unit is movable vertically, horizontally, or back and forth.
