Wafer connector usually refers to the base (sheet) connector of the connector. It is usually assembled by metal parts and plastic parts. It is often used on PCB board. Unlike Hosing, it has only plastic parts (some with iron shells), which are assembled with wires and terminals.

This is according to the name of seat adopted by MOLEX company. Molex company is the developer of wafer connector. It is also called the original factory by domestic connector manufacturers. But why do many enterprises choose domestic alternative manufacturers instead of Molex company? The reason is that wafer connector technology is not very difficult, in the case of transparent manufacturing process materials, the quality is the same, and due to the globalization of the original layout, energy is limited, there is no substitute manufacturer in the delivery period is fast, the price is not dominant. So many manufacturers choose alternative manufacturers.
