Rectangular Or Circular, There’s More To Connectors Than Meets The Eye

Two common types of connectors are rectangular and circular, both of which can be used in various applications. In addition to differing in shape, these two types of connectors differ in contact density, durability, installation methods, and ideal applications as well. Choosing between the two depends on factors such as space constraints, environmental conditions, contact density requirements, and ease of installation.
