The connector industry in mainland China, which has been dominated by the low-end market for many years, has always had a great advantage in the low-end market. However, connector manufacturers who realize that always going to the low-end market is not the way to go are also entering the mid-to-high-end market in recent years. At the same time, they have also been fighting price wars with the Asian market. Due to China's strong labor resources, it is in the price station. Shang is often the winner. Now almost all connectors can be bought in mainland China. Mainstream models are mainly used in computers, telecommunications, A/V products, and optical fiber and PCB connectors.

With the rapid growth of consumer electronics and automotive electronics, and the global connector production capacity continues to move to Asia Shifting from China, Asia is recognized as the most promising place in the connector market, and China will become the world's fastest growing connector market and the largest capacity. The popular connector products in the future will be connectors for automotive electronics applications and terminal communications and consumer electronics, such as optical fiber connectors, IEEE1394 connectors and USB connectors.

Generally speaking, the overall development characteristics of the connector field are: high-speed signal transmission, digitization and integration Modification; small size, narrow spacing, and multi-function of product volume; convenience of plugging and modularization; low cost of products. In addition, assembly technology is also required to develop toward surface mount (SMT) and micro assembly (MPT).

There are many new industries that require connectors, and many of them are due to connector technology Quite high requirements, and mainland China still has a lot of shortcomings in terms of technical strength and production experience. Faced with the market and technological changes of connectors, China should keep track of the frontier technologies of connectors, learn new connector technologies, gradually get rid of the competition of low-end product types, and develop high-end product lines.
