Panel rack mount power connectors are custom connectors engineered for simple and secure attachment to panels or racks for power supply connections. These connectors are crucial for dependable power distribution and management, boasting sturdy construction, high current-handling capabilities, and suitability for standard rack mounting setups, thereby constituting vital elements in power distribution networks.
The primary categories of panel rack mount power connectors comprise alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) variants. AC power connectors facilitate the transmission of AC power from a power source to diverse devices, equipment, and systems. These connectors find utility across multiple sectors including information technology (IT) and telecommunications, consumer electronics, industrial automation, automotive, aerospace and defense, healthcare, among others, for applications such as server racks and data centers.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs have impacted the panel rack mount power connectors market by increasing the cost of imported metals, precision components, and electrical contact materials used in connector manufacturing. These effects are most visible in data centers, IT infrastructure, and industrial automation segments across north america, europe, and asia pacific. Higher input costs have pressured connector pricing and procurement budgets. At the same time, tariffs have encouraged local manufacturing, supply chain diversification, and design optimization to reduce material dependency and overall costs.

The panel rack mount power connector market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.64 billion in 2025 to $3.85 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in data center infrastructure, increasing deployment of server racks, rising demand for reliable power connectivity, expansion of industrial automation systems, need for standardized power interfaces.
The panel rack mount power connector market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.68 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of hyperscale data centers, rising edge computing deployments, increasing power density requirements, growth of smart manufacturing facilities, demand for easy to install and maintain power connectors. Major trends in the forecast period include rising demand for high density power distribution in server racks, growing adoption of standardized panel mount power interfaces, increasing need for high current and high reliability connectors, rising focus on modular and space efficient rack designs, growing emphasis on safety certified and locking power connectors.
The growing popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) is projected to boost the panel rack mount power connector market in the future. EVs are powered by electricity, utilizing electric motors and batteries instead of traditional internal combustion engines fueled by gasoline or diesel. Several factors are contributing to the increased adoption of electric vehicles, such as environmental concerns, advancements in battery technology, government incentives, lower operating costs, and the expansion of charging infrastructure. Panel rack mount power connectors play a crucial role in electric vehicles by providing reliable power connections for EV charging stations, ensuring safe and efficient energy delivery to the vehicle's battery systems. For example, a report by Kelley Blue Book, a Cox Automotive company, published in January 2024, revealed that in 2023, 1.2 million car buyers in the U.S. chose electric vehicles, making up 7.6% of the total vehicle market, up from 5.9% in 2022. As a result, the rising adoption of electric vehicles is fueling the growth of the panel rack mount power connector market.
Major companies operating in the panel rack mount power connector market are focusing on developing advanced solutions such as compact hybrid power-and-data connectors to improve space efficiency and reduce wiring complexity in dense equipment racks. A compact hybrid power-and-data connector integrates power, signal, and high-speed data contacts into a single mating interface, saving board and panel space while simplifying installation and lowering the bill of materials. For instance, in May 2024, Molex, a US-based interconnect manufacturer, introduced the MX-DaSH connector family, featuring integrated power, signal, and high-speed data contacts that reduce packaging requirements by up to 30% and support automated harness assembly. The MX-DaSH series shortens assembly time by combining multiple functions in one connector, reducing the number of separate cable runs and terminations. It supports multiple terminal sizes for flexible power and signal assignments and meets global standards with validated performance for demanding environments, enabling equipment makers to densify rack and panel designs while maintaining reliability.
