Embodiment Construction

[0035] According to an embodiment of the present invention, Figures 1 to 5 Shown is an electronic box B (also called a gateway), which is notably designed to provide Internet connectivity to specialized buildings, residences, etc. As shown in these figures, the electronic box B takes the shape of a cuboid. Of course, other shapes (eg oval) are also conceivable.

[0036] It will be readily understood that the invention is by no means limited to Internet boxes, but may also be applied to TV decoder boxes (in particular set-top boxes). Also, obviously, the internet box may have any other shape desired and suitable, such as a cube.

[0037] Hereafter and by convention, an internet box B is defined by a depth p, a width l and a length L extending respectively along the x, y and z directions of the orthogonal axes (x, y, z) associated with said box B. Furthermore, the concepts front / rear, left / right and top / bottom are defined with respect to the x, y and z directions: the direct...

Abstract

According to the invention, an electronic box (B) is disclosed comprising a main connection zone (1 A) defined on one of its walls (2A) and in which is arranged at least one main connector (3) designed to receive an external connection cable (4), and further comprising: - an attachment zone (5) separate from the main connection zone (1A) and defined on another wall (6) of said box (B), in which means for attaching (7) a box to an external support (9) are able to be arranged, and - a moving part (10) configured to occupy at least: a closed position in which the main connection zone (1A) and the attachment zone (5) are simultaneously covered to prevent access to said attachment means (7) and to said external connection cable (4), once the latter respectively are fitted and connected, an open position in which the main connection zone (1A) and the attachment zone (5) are accessible.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to electronic boxes, in particular but not exclusively to Internet access boxes (also known as gateways) and video decoding boxes (also known as set-top boxes). [0002] In particular, but not exclusively, the present invention is particularly suitable for the aforementioned electronic box adopting the shape of a cuboid. Background technique [0003] As is well known, internet boxes and / or decoders generally comprise several connectors designed to communicate with different types of connecting cables (e.g. Ethernet, HDMI, USB, RJ11, etc.) and external devices (such as USB keys) to cooperate. [0004] In addition, and in a known manner, the connectors of the Internet boxes and / or decoders are generally arranged next to each other, preferably behind them, and remain continuously accessible to the end user. [0005] However, the Internet access provider may be required to prohibit access to the Internet box's main connectio...
