As the consumer electronics, automotive electronics, the rapid growth of the communications end markets, and global connectivity production capacity continued to transfer to Asia and China, Asia has become the most development potential of the connector market, China will become the growth in global connector fastest and capacity of the largest market. It is estimated that the future of the Chinese connector market growth rate will continue to exceed the global average, the Chinese connector market size of the average annual growth rate will reach 15 percent in the next five years to 2010, the Chinese connection device market capacity will reach 25.7 billion yuan. electrical connectors supporting areas have transportation, communications, networking, IT, medical, home appliances, supporting the level of product technology in the field of rapid development and rapid market growth, strong traction connector technology. So far, the connector has developed into a complete product range, rich varieties and specifications, various structural types, segments of the professional direction, industry characteristics, the standard series of standard system and specialized products.

Overall, the connector technology development showed the following characteristics: high-speed digital signal transmission, the integration of the various types of signal transmission, the miniaturization miniaturization of the product volume, the product of the low cost of contact with pieces of termination table paste, and module combination, the convenience of plug and so on. technology represents the development direction of connector technology, but it should be noted that: the above technology is not all connectors are required, different matching fields and the use of the environment connectors, the demand point of the above technology is completely different.

The development of the connector should be small, high-density, high-speed, high-frequency direction. Miniaturization of the connector center spacing smaller, high density to achieve a number of large core of high density PCB (printed circuit board) to connect effective way to reach a total of 600 core, dedicated devices up to 5000 cores. high-speed transmission is a modern computer, IT and network technology requirements of the time scale of the signal transmission rate up to the MHz band, the pulse time to reach the sub-millisecond, so high-speed transmission connector. high frequency millimeter-wave operating band to adapt to the development of millimeter wave technology, radio frequency coaxial connectors have entered.
