The cooperation between ept and Rosenberger integrates both types in combined hybrid connectors which can be assembled on the printed circuit board using either conventional soldering technology or the advantageous press-fit technology.

Both companies are leading suppliers in their respective fields:

Rosenberger’s wide range of connectors, including the H-MTD^® series, MTD^®, HFM^® and FAKRA, is known worldwide for its high-speed data transmission in automotive applications, such as Ethernet for ADAS or infotainment.

ept is known for its Tcom press^®-fit zone and custom interface connectors for automotive ECUs, especially in critical applications such as airbag ECUs, ABS/ESP, combustion engine or electric drive and battery ECUs.

The Hybrid Connector system now offered by Rosenberger and ept provides a range of benefits to OEMs and their suppliers by integrating the strengths of both manufacturers. Other benefits include space savings, increased reliability in harsh environments and cost reduction from connector to PCB assembly.
