Smart Architectures – Hybrid Connectivity Solutions for Automotive Applications
The increase in electronic content is driving the need for reduced scale and complexity of the physical wiring network within vehicles. This is leading to a transformation from electrical/electronic (E/E) architectures that are fragmented and functionally orientated to more centralized and simplified “zonal” architectures. To meet this need, TE Connectivity has designed and developed a broad range of hybrid connector solutions based on established OEM-released interfaces supporting both signal, power and different types of data connectivity to support a large range of applications.

Hybrid Connector Block-Loading Readiness
Modularity is a key part of TE’s basic design guidelines
for automated housing assembly, which is particularly important for hybrid
connectors. These guidelines support the combination of various standardized
connector modules with a frame.
