Abstract
An electronic apparatus having function of switching node modules includes at least two node modules, a shared I/O module having a first I/O interface connected with an external device, a second I/O interface electrically connected with the at least two node modules and a switching module connecting the at least two node modules. The shared I/O module is used to cause the shared I/O module to communicate with one node module in the at least two node modules through the second I/O interface according to a selection signal when receiving the selection signal. The shared I/O module integrates multiple communication ports and switches the node module communicating with the shared I/O module according to a selection signal, the shared I/O module also can be designed as a shared I/O module combined by multiple different ports in advance to perform corresponding replacement according to user needs.
