First Claim
Patent Images
1. A backplane of a communications device, comprising:
- at least one fixing plate;
multiple connectors; and
multiple flexible cables;
wherein signal connection is implemented between corresponding connectors using the flexible cables, wherein each of the connectors is provided with a housing and multiple signal pins installed on the housing, wherein the housing is installed on the at least one fixing plate, and wherein the housing is provided with a jack for insertion of a connector of a subcard in the communications device;
wherein one end of each signal pin is inserted into the jack, and wherein the other end is connected to one of the multiple flexible cables;
wherein a surface of each fixing plate facing the subcard in the communications device is an insertion surface of the fixing plate, and wherein the multiple flexible cables are located on a side of the fixing plate opposite to the insertion surface; and
wherein each fixing plate is provided with at least one connector opening running through a thickness direction of the fixing plate, and wherein a housing of each connector runs through the fixing plate through the connector opening.

Abstract
A backplane and a communications device are disclosed. In one example, the backplane includes at least one fixing plate, multiple connectors, and multiple flexible cables, where signal connection is implemented between corresponding connectors by the flexible cables. Each of the connectors is provided with a housing, and multiple signal pins are installed on the housing. The housing is installed on the fixing plate and is provided with a jack for insertion of a connector of a subcard in the communications device. One end of each signal pin is inserted into the jack, and the other end is connected to each flexible cable.
