The top five application fields of global wire to board connector sales are: automobile, computer and its peripherals, communication, industrial equipment, aerospace and military, while the top five applications are consumer electronics, transportation electronics, communication electronics, computer and peripherals. Medical electronics has become a new growth point of connector applications, With the implementation of China's new medical reform and the continuous improvement of medical informatization level, the market demand capacity of connectors in China's medical field is increasing.

China's connectors are mainly medium and low-end, and the proportion of high-end connectors is relatively low, but the demand growth is fast. At present, China's connector development is in the transition period from production to creation, and occupies a large market share in the field of high-end connectors, computers and peripheral equipment. The automotive connector market also accounts for a high share. The domestic automotive connector market share accounts for about 20%, and the rapid popularization of 3G mobile phones makes the demand for high-end connectors grow rapidly. With the increasing competition in the connector manufacturing industry, M & A integration and capital operation among large connector manufacturing enterprises are becoming more and more frequent. Domestic connector manufacturing enterprises pay more and more attention to the research on the industry market, especially the in-depth research on the industrial development environment and product buyers. Because of this, a large number of domestic connector brands are rising rapidly.

With the rapid growth of consumer electronics, automotive electronics and communication terminal markets and the continuous transfer of global connector production capacity to Asia and China, Asia has become a place with connector market development potential, and China will become a global connector market with fast growth and large capacity. The main supporting fields of electrical connectors include transportation, communication, network, it, household appliances, etc, The rapid development of the technical level of products in the supporting field and the rapid growth of the market have strongly led the development of connector technology. So far, connectors have developed into serialized and specialized products with complete product types, rich varieties and specifications, diverse structural types, subdivided professional directions, obvious industry characteristics and standardized standard system.

Generally speaking, the development of wire to board connector technology shows the following characteristics: high speed and digitization of signal transmission, integration of various signal transmission, miniaturization and miniaturization of product volume, low cost of products, surface pasting of contact termination mode, modular combination, convenience of plug-in and out, etc. the above technologies represent the development direction of connector technology, However, it should be noted that the above technologies are not necessary for all connectors. The requirements for the above technologies are completely different for connectors in different supporting fields and different use environments.
