Demystifying Automotive Connectors: A Guide to Types and Single Vehicle Value

Aug-09-2023

Connectors, as key components for current or signal connections, are also an important component of industrial systems. From airplanes and rockets to mobile phones and televisions, connectors come in various forms, serving as bridges between circuits or other components to connect current or signals.

As the largest application field of connectors, automotive connectors account for 23.7% of the global connector market.

Based on their working voltage, automotive connectors can be categorized into low-voltage connectors, high-voltage connectors, and high-speed connectors.

Currently, the medium and low voltage connectors occupy the largest market share. However, with the fast-paced advancement of new energy vehicles and the electrification and automation of automobiles, the demand for high-voltage and high-speed connectors is rapidly increasing.

Global Connector Market

Low-voltage connectors

Typically, low-voltage connectors are utilized in traditional fuel vehicles for applications such as lamps and window lift motors, with a working voltage generally below 20V. These automotive electrical connectors  have a unit value of approximately 600 Chinese yuan, equivalent to around 90  dollars.

High voltage connectors

High-voltage connectors are primarily employed in various applications of new energy vehicles, including batteries, PDU (high voltage distribution box), OBC (on-board charger), DC, air conditioning, PTC heating, and DC/AC charging interface. These automotive electrical connectors are capable of transmitting voltage levels ranging from 60V-380V or higher and current levels ranging from 10A-300A or higher, depending on the specific scenario. The unit value of high-voltage connectors ranges from 1000 to 3000 Chinese yuan, approximately equivalent to 300 dollars.

High-speed connectors

High-speed connectors are divided into FAKRA RF connectors, Mini FAKRA connectors, HSD (High-Speed Data) connectors and Ethernet connectors, which are mainly used for cameras, laser radars, millimeter-wave radars, sensors, broadcast antennas, GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, infotainment systems, navigation and driving assistance systems, etc. The value of high-speed connectors per vehicle will be 500~1000 yuan, equivalent to about 100 dollars.
