A magnetic connector combines spring-loaded electrical contacts, magnets, insulation and a mechanically guided mating interface. CTP develops device-side magnetic connectors around the approved pin map, voltage and current, signal function, available space, mating direction, PCB or wire termination, sealing boundary and validation plan. The result is not selected by appearance alone: every project must connect the device architecture, electrical load and mechanical integration.
Complete Product Catalog
All published connector product records are shown below. Filter by contact count or round structure without leaving this page.
Product Definition
Use a connector when the project needs the magnetic mating interface, receptacle, PCB-mounted contact structure or wire-terminated magnetic head. Choose a complete cable assembly when the supply scope must also include cable conductors, source-side interface, shielding, jacket, strain relief and finished-cable validation.
Focuses on the magnetic mating interface and device integration.
Includes the connector head plus the complete cable construction.
Selection Routes
The categories below are engineering starting points. They do not replace a drawing review or model-specific specification.
Useful where rotational alignment, compact diameter or circular industrial design is preferred.
Supports directional mating, linear pin layouts and space-constrained device edges.
Pin count follows the required power, ground, data, signal and identification functions.
Housing, gasket, potting and device-side sealing boundaries are reviewed as a complete interface.
Engineering Inputs
CTP uses these inputs to evaluate contact allocation, magnetic arrangement, housing geometry and the validation scope. Numerical values are only published when they belong to a specific model and documented condition.
| Engineering Item | What the Customer Should Provide | What CTP Confirms |
|---|---|---|

Development Route
A repeatable development route keeps electrical, mechanical and manufacturing assumptions visible to both engineering and procurement teams.
Application, pin map, voltage, current, space and supply scope.
Geometry, magnets, contacts, insulation, mounting and cable interface.
Dimensions, tolerances, materials, pin definition and responsibility boundary.
Project-specific electrical, mechanical and environmental checks.
Approved specification, inspection points, traceability and packaging.
Application Engineering
Magnetic connectors are used in wearables, medical equipment, smart home devices, consumer electronics, robotics, industrial equipment, automotive accessories and other OEM products. Each application changes the acceptable connector size, user force, cable route, sealing boundary, signal requirement and validation method.
Prioritize available space, blind mating, user interaction and repeated connection.
Review alignment, contamination, vibration, service access and automated docking.
Define cleaning, material, risk, documentation and validation requirements for the specific device.
