Magnetic Mating Interface
Confirm Pin count, contact allocation, magnet arrangement, connector shape, polarity control and mating direction.
A custom 1 pin round magnetic connector with a concentric mating face and rear axial cable lead. The center contact provides the visible electrical interface, while the outer-ring function, return path, voltage, current capability, contact travel, magnetic retention and device-side mounting are defined according to the approved project drawing.
The finished assembly must define the magnetic mating component, internal conductor arrangement, cable construction and the opposite-end connection as one complete electrical system.
Confirm Pin count, contact allocation, magnet arrangement, connector shape, polarity control and mating direction.
Define cable length, conductor count, wire specification, shielding requirements, jacket and flexibility.
Select USB, Type-C, DC plug, bare wire, terminal, PCB connection or another customized termination.
Confirm installation space, outlet direction, strain relief, exposed-contact state and user operation.
1 PIN ROUND MAGNETIC CONNECTOR
This 1 pin round magnetic connector uses a compact circular mating interface with one central electrical contact and a rear axial cable lead. The cable-terminated structure can be integrated into custom equipment where a removable round magnetic interface is required.
The visible center contact defines the one-pin interface. The electrical function of the surrounding annular structure and the complete return path should be confirmed by the approved wiring and connector drawings.
Magnets primarily assist capture and retention during mating. Final position, alignment and seating should be established by the circular housing, mating surfaces and mechanical datums rather than magnetic attraction alone.
The cable-side connector uses a round front mating face with a central contact and concentric surrounding structure. The cable exits from the rear along the connector axis.
This architecture can be evaluated where a compact circular mating envelope and straight cable routing behind the connector are compatible with the device layout.
Pin Count 1 Pin
Shape Round / circular
Cable Routing Rear / axial cable lead
Mating Geometry Concentric circular interface
One central electrical contact is visible, but a complete electrical circuit still requires a defined return path.
The approved wiring diagram should identify the function of the center contact, the surrounding ring and any other conductive structure involved in the electrical path.
Center Contact Function → Defined by Approved Drawing
Outer Ring Function → To Be Confirmed
Complete Return Path → Defined by Approved Wiring Diagram
If the outer annular structure is used as an electrical return contact, its material, surface finish, interface resistance and cable termination should be included in the complete conductive-path validation.
The reference configuration uses a cable or wire lead exiting from the rear of the round connector body along the connector axis.
Cable length, conductor count, wire gauge, cable outer diameter, jacket construction, strain relief and the opposite-end termination should be defined according to the project.
The axial cable route should be reviewed against the available installation depth, minimum cable bend radius and device housing geometry.
The magnetic structure assists the connector during approach and helps retain the mating interface after engagement.
Capture force, retention force, separation force and peel force describe different mechanical conditions and should be specified separately where required.
Final alignment and seating should be controlled by the circular housing geometry and mechanical mating datums.
Stronger magnetic retention is not automatically better. The required holding and release behavior should be selected according to cable routing, device mass, mounting structure and expected use conditions.
A round connector should not automatically be described as providing unrestricted 360-degree electrical mating.
Rotational freedom depends on the electrical symmetry of the center contact and surrounding ring, polarity requirements, mechanical keying and device-side mating structure.
If rotational mating is required, the permitted rotation and electrical behavior should be defined in the approved electrical and mechanical drawings.
The image confirms one central contact position, but the internal spring-loaded contact structure should be confirmed by the approved contact drawing.
If the center contact uses a pogo-pin structure, working stroke, total travel, spring force and installed compression should be specified separately.
Working stroke defines the intended operating compression, while total travel represents the available mechanical movement of the contact.
The connector housing should establish the final seated position. A spring-loaded contact should provide electrical connection and controlled Z-axis compliance rather than act as the primary mechanical hard stop.
Current capability cannot be determined from the center-contact diameter or one-pin description alone.
Source → Cable Conductors → Cable Termination → Magnetic Connector Contact → Mating Interface → Device-Side Termination → PCB / Wiring → Load → Confirmed Return Path
Vdrop = I × Rpath
Ploss = I² × Rpath
Cable length, conductor gauge, termination resistance, center-contact resistance, return-path resistance, mating condition and device-side wiring should be evaluated together before a continuous-current rating is released.
Continuous current and peak current should be defined separately when the application includes transient or intermittent loading.
The mating-side connector structure is not defined by the reference image and should be confirmed from the device drawing.
PCB, FPC, wire, cable, panel or housing integration should only be stated after the mounting and termination architecture has been approved.
The mating-side component should establish the required mechanical position without using the spring-loaded electrical contact as the primary structural stop.
Round geometry and a recessed contact structure do not by themselves establish corrosion resistance, waterproof performance or mating-cycle capability.
Contact material, plating, housing construction, cable materials and environmental requirements should be defined and validated for the specific project.
An IP rating should only be stated after the complete mating interface, device installation and sealing architecture have been defined and tested.

This compact round magnetic connector can be evaluated for devices requiring a detachable circular electrical interface with an axial cable lead.
Final application suitability depends on the approved electrical architecture, mating geometry, cable construction, mounting structure and environmental conditions.
This product is defined as a round magnetic connector with an axial cable lead. The core product is the magnetic mating interface rather than a predefined finished charging cable assembly.
The visible connector uses one central contact. The electrical function of the surrounding annular structure should be confirmed from the approved wiring diagram.
The return path must be defined in the approved electrical design. If the surrounding ring is electrically active, its termination and interface resistance should be included in the complete conductive-path review.
Voltage and current are project-specific. Current capability must be validated through the cable, termination, center contact, mating interface, device-side connection and complete return path.
No. Circular geometry alone does not establish unrestricted rotational mating. Electrical symmetry, polarity, mechanical keying and the mating-side architecture must be confirmed.
The image confirms a central contact position, but the internal spring-loaded mechanism, working stroke and total travel should be confirmed by the approved contact drawing.
Capture force, retention force, separation force and peel force should be distinguished. The required values depend on the mating direction, cable routing, device mass and mounting structure.
No IP rating should be inferred from the round connector geometry. Environmental protection depends on the complete mating interface, device installation and sealing structure.
