Connectors are electronic components used for transmission and exchange of current or optical signals between electronic system devices. As nodes, connectors transmit current or optical signals between devices, components, equipment, and subsystems independently or together with cables, and keep the signal distortion and energy loss between systems from changing. They are the basic components necessary for the connection of the entire system. According to the "National Economic Industry Classification" (GB/T4754-2017) released by the National Bureau of Statistics, connectors belong to the "Computer, Communication and Other Electronic Equipment Manufacturing (C39)" category, the "Electronic Components and Electronic Special Materials Manufacturing (C398)" category, and the "Other Electronic Components Manufacturing (C3989)" category. According to the different transmission media, connectors can be divided into electrical connectors, microwave radio frequency connectors, optical connectors, and fluid connectors.
Industry-related policies
Connectors are one of the key industries that the country encourages to develop. In recent years, relevant departments in my country have issued a series of policies to support, encourage and regulate the development of the industry. For example, in August 2023, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Finance issued the "Electronic Information Manufacturing Industry 2023-2024 Stable Growth Action Plan", pointing out: sorting out the standard systems of basic electronic components, semiconductor devices, optoelectronic devices, electronic materials, new displays, integrated circuits, smart homes, virtual reality, etc., and accelerating the formulation of key standards and the implementation of published standards. In December 2023, the National Development and Reform Commission issued the "Guidelines for Industrial Structure Adjustment (2024 Edition)", encouraging the development of "new electronic component manufacturing" and "special materials for electronic component production" industries.
Development History
The Chinese connector industry has experienced a development process from the start-up stage to the rapid growth stage to technological innovation and international competition. Under the background of China's economic reform and opening up, it has gradually grown into an important participant in the global connector industry. In recent years, my country's connectors have played an important role in the development of smart manufacturing, the Internet of Things, 5G and other fields, and promoted the development and application of global connector technology.

Industry status
In recent years, benefiting from the continuous promotion of related industries such as communications, automobiles, consumer electronics, industrial control, and rail transit, the global connector market has expanded rapidly. In 2023, the global connector market will reach US$96.3 billion. Affected by global economic fluctuations, the growth of the connector market in some countries or regions has slowed down, while emerging markets represented by China have grown strongly, becoming an important driving force for the growth of the global connector market. At present, China is the world's largest connector market. In 2023, the Chinese connector market will reach US$29.3 billion, accounting for 30.43% of the global connector market, leading other regions in the world. With the transformation and upgrading of China's economy and structural adjustment, China's manufacturing industry has accelerated its growth, and China's connector industry will usher in greater development opportunities in the future.
At present, in the new era of the connector industry, new technologies are constantly emerging, the pattern of the manufacturing industry is also being readjusted, and the supply chain of the electronics industry has undergone profound changes. In this wave of change, artificial intelligence, electrification, and high-speed technology have developed rapidly at an unprecedented speed, bringing new vitality to the connector industry. But there are also challenges in terms of scale, talent, and funding. Only companies that continue to innovate and keep pace with the times can stand out in the fierce market competition and become leaders in industry development.
