Molex is sampling MiniMix Hybrid Power and Signal Connectors for manufacturing and packaging applications in humanoid robotics, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) and industrial automation.
Combining 15.0A power and high-speed Ethernet communication within a single interface, MiniMix streamlines installation in space-constrained joints, actuators and robotic mechanisms, reducing connector count, cabling complexity and assembly effort.
“MiniMix replaces tedious manual assembly with an integrated solution for power and signal transmission,” says Molex president Brian Hauge.
MiniMix Hybrid Power and Signal Connectors consolidate up to 15.0A power contacts and 1Gbps 1000BASE-T1 Ethernet communication into a single integrated interface with a 5.65mm routing profile,The connectors come in vertical and right-angle mating orientations.
Samples and functional evaluation assemblies of the Molex MiniMix Hybrid Power and Signal Connector family are available now for design-in and evaluation, with commercial production scaling slated for late 2026.
