Description

Report Summary:

This extensive 229 -page, seven-chapter research report provides an in-depth analysis of the MIL-spec/COTS equivalent and commercial/industrial circular connector markets. This report furnishes detailed statistics worldwide and by region, broken down by circular connector types for the years 2021, 2022, 2023F and 2028F. In addition, to specific circular connector series, products are recapped as MIL-Spec/COTS equivalents and commercial/industrial types. An expanded quantitative review of cable assemblies using circular connectors is included along with reviews of many key manufacturers that produce the circular connectors discussed.

Additional Details:

Connectors are an essential part of electrical and electronic connections. In an increasingly electronic and digital world, connectors are key to creating products for networking and connectivity. They are used in all areas of electrical engineering and electronics. Depending on the application and transmission required, connectors are designed to satisfy the intended purpose in the best way possible, which is why there are so many variations, types, and sizes.

This report focuses on circular connectors, which range in size from nano and micro-miniature to huge, heavy-duty models. New product highlights include the recently issued MIL-DTL-32689 (micro DTL-38999 types), M5 for SPE, Multi-Port circulars with RF and FO, heavy duty vehicle connectors, hybrid and power M Series, hermaphroditic audio types, mini-sensor connectors, sealed and unsealed plastic circulars, push-pull and breakaway, and others, plus updates on both MIL and commercial versions of popular MIL-DTL-38999, MIL-DTL-5015, etc. Applicable US standards (MIL-Spec, EIA, SAE, etc.) plus selected international specifications (EU, Russian, Chinese, etc.) are listed.

This report is intended for use by those interested in forecasting circular connectors by product and industry trends or benchmarking comparative sales by product type or overall and regional markets, while providing an understanding of various circular connectors including new types, industry standards, and primary suppliers. While an in-depth technical presentation is not intended (books are written just on the materials involved), basic technology and comparative specifications are included. Forecasts reference industry specifications and generic series terminology.
