中国大陆的连接器行业多年来一直在低端市场占有很大的优势,意识到始终走低端市场不是办法,同时为了满足更多对连接器有需求的新型产业,连接器厂商们近年来也逐渐向高端市场进军,发展高端产品线,加之全球的连接器生产能力不断向亚洲和中国转移,亚洲被公认为连接器市场最有发展潜力的地方,中国成为世界上最大的连接器生产基地,可以说中国的连接器市场规模逐年扩大,行业创新技术水平可期待,连接器行业空间广阔,发展潜力大,未来有非常大的提升空间。
连接器行业中其热门连接器产品是汽车电子,终端通信以及消费电子的连接器,如光纤连接器、USB连接器等,其中防水Micro USB有着其独特之处,受到更多电子产品生产厂家的青睐。Micro-USB是USB2.0的一个便携版本,比标准USB和Mini-USB连接器更小,且具有高达一万次的插拔寿命和强度,盲插结构设计。通用性广,使用便捷,节省空间。Micro-USB标准支持目前USB的OTG功能,即在没有主机的情况下,便携设备之间可直接实现数据传输,兼容USB1.1 和USB 2.0,同时提供数据传输和充电,特别适用于高速(HS)或更高速率的数据传输,是连接小型设备比如手机,数码相机等等设备的最佳选择,也能为车载提供方便,只需要USB车载充电器,再加Micro USB数据线就可进行手机应急充电。
受益于电子设备迅猛的更新速度,Micro USB作为设备上最重要的连接孔之一,在防尘防水性能上必须加强防范,因此市面上越来越多电子设备采用了防水Micro USB接口,IP等级越来越高,对防水Micro USB的需求也越来越大,随着科技的发展,未来对Micro USB也会提出更高的要求,如信号传输的高速化、体积的小尺寸、窄间距、多功能、插拔的便捷化、防水手段的升级、新型材料的选择以及产品的低成本化,都将成为未来关注的焦点。
Development trend of waterproof micro usb industry in China
The connector industry in mainland China has had a big advantage in the low-end market for years,connector manufacturers is developing in the direction of high- end products for that they realize it's not good always going the low-end market,and they want to meet more new industries that have a need for connectors,moreover,the production capacity of the global connector is constantly shifting to Asia and China,Asia is recognized as the most promising market for connectors,China has become the world's largest connector production base,it can be said that China's connector market has been expanding year by year,the level of innovation technology in the industry is worthy of expectation,connector industry has great potential for future development.
The hot connector products in the connector industry are automobile electronics, terminal communication and consumer electronics connectors,such as optical fiber connectors, USB connectors and so on,among them,waterproof Micro USB Connectors have their unique features,and they are favored by more manufacturers of electronic products.
Micro-USB connectors, have a similar width to Mini-USB, but approximately half the thickness, enabling their integration into thinner portable devices,the thinner Micro-USB connectors were introduced to replace the Mini connectors in devices manufactured since May 2007, including
smartphones,personal digital assistants,and cameras.The Micro plug design is rated for at least 10,000 connect-disconnect cycles, which is more than the Mini plug design.Micro-USB was endorsed as the standard connector for data and power on mobile devices.
As one of the most important connecting holes on the device,Micro-USB connectors must be strengthened to prevent dust and water.With the rapid update speed of electronic devices, more and more electronic devices on the market adopt waterproof Micro-USB connectors.The IP grade is getting higher, and the demand for waterproof Micro USB is getting greater,with the development of technology, there will be higher requirements for Micro USB in the future,high speed of signal transmission, small size of volume, narrow space, multi-function, convenience of plug and pull, upgrade of waterproof means, selection of new materials and low cost of products those all will become the focus of future attention.
