If you are doing industrial automation, automotive electronics or AI hardware design, then every May EDS (electronic distribution show) should not be unfamiliar. The show, held in Las Vegas, is an important occasion for global distributors and manufacturers in the fields of connectors, passive components and electromechanical products.
This year,ATTENDTechnologyMake sure to attend EDS 2026 from May 18 to 22 at Resorts World in Las Vegas. As an established manufacturer of connectors that has been doing since 2002, they brought a lot of new things worth seeing this time.
According to the information we got, ATTEND's key products are basically on the demand points of several popular applications.
1. FAKRA, HSD, HS-MTP connectors and cable assemblies
This a few things, do automotive electronics friends should be very familiar. FAKRA is currently the mainstream interface for on-board cameras and antennas, and HSD is mainly used for video signal transmission in the car. The HS-MTP is a higher-density differential signal connection scheme that supports frequencies up to 20GHz, mainly for next-generation in-vehicle Ethernet and higher-resolution cameras.
Because there are more and more smart cars, cameras and sensors, and the requirements for bandwidth and reliability are also rising. An 8K surround view camera, if the bandwidth of the connector is not enough, the picture transmission will be stuck. ATTEND covers the transmission requirements from 1.5G to 20G, and can basically cover the perception system of automatic driving from L2 to L4.
2. Nano SIM waterproof card holder
This product looks small, but there are many application scenarios. For example, outdoor Internet of Things devices, smart water meters and electricity meters, and shared charging piles, these devices are placed outdoors to prevent rain and need SIM cards to maintain communication. Nano SIM card holder has a waterproof and sealed design, IP67 level, which is completely dustproof and not afraid of soaking in water for a short time. Coupled with the small size, it can be stuffed into a variety of compact equipment.
3. M12 waterproof connector (two piece & quick lock series)
M12 is a standard part in industrial automation. Sensors, actuators, fieldbus, you can see it everywhere. The two-piece version and quick lock series brought by ATTEND this time mainly solve the problem of installation efficiency.
In the past, when connecting M12, it was necessary to screw the screws round by round, which was inefficient. If the strength of the hand was small, it would loosen easily, and if the strength was too strong, it might be screwed out. The quick lock series is in place with one push and one press by hand, which can save a lot of time for scenes requiring a large number of installations on the production line. And the waterproof grade is IP67/IP68, so you don't have to worry about water when washing the equipment.
4. USB Type-C connector and cable
USB Type-C has quickly become the standard for car charging and data transmission. However, the Type-C of the car gauge level is not the same as that of the consumer level. There are vibrations, temperature changes, and electromagnetic interference inside the car. Ordinary Type-C may be loosened after a few bumps. ATTEND products are specially reinforced for the vehicle environment, the contact part is designed to resist vibration, and the working temperature range also covers -40 C to 105 C, basically meeting the use requirements of all positions in the vehicle.
ATTEND/Liwei Technology was established in 2002 and has been focusing on the connector field for more than 20 years now. It is more special point is that there is no minimum order quantity. For engineers doing research and development, this is very friendly. Because in the early proofing, only a few dozen pieces may be needed, and many large factories are not willing to accept this kind of list at all, but ATTEND is willing to cooperate.
In addition, their customization ability is also relatively strong. If the standard connector does not match the size and number of pins, you can communicate with their engineers to change the plan. We have done a project before and need a Type-C with a lock. We found a suitable one on the market and finally customized it at ATTEND.
For many customers, it is one thing to know that ATTEND's products are good. How to get samples quickly and how to ensure stable mass production and supply is another thing.
BONCHIP ElectronicsAsAuthorized Distributors of ATTENDIn this chain, it plays the role of "making good products fall to the ground faster. We have long-term stock of ATTEND full series connectors, FAKRA, M12, Type-C, SIM card holder, commonly used models can basically do the same day inquiry, the same day delivery.
The samples in the research and development stage can be sent within 48 hours, which is convenient for engineers to quickly verify the design. For bulk orders in the mass production phase, we rely on a stable supply chain and logistics network to ensure delivery and price competitiveness.
Our principle is very simple: customers put the design to do a good job to themselves, the material supply to us. From sample to batch, from selection consultation to technical docking, we provide full support.
If you plan to participate in EDS 2026, want to see ATTEND's new products on site, or want to talk to their engineers about technical details, you can pay attention to the following information:
Time: May 18-22, 2026
LocationLas Vegas, United States, Resorts World
Booth: Euro Suite (specific booth number to be announced)
From the high-speed transmission of vehicle-mounted cameras, to the waterproof sealing of outdoor equipment, to the rapid installation of industrial sites, several types of products exhibited by ATTEND on EDS this time actually point to a trend: connectors are changing from "common parts" to "scene customization parts". Different industries, different applications, the requirements of the connector more and more detailed, but also more and more professional.
For engineers who are working on related products, this is actually good news-there are more options and more products that can solve practical problems. And what distributors like BONCHIP can do is to make these good products more smoothly delivered to engineers.
