Hirose Electric Europe, in partnership with Avnet Abacus, will host a new webinar titled ‘Designing Reliable Battery Management Systems: Connector Requirements & Hirose Solutions’ on Thursday, 27th November 2025 at 3:00pm CET.
The session will explore how advanced connector technologies are enhancing the performance, safety, and reliability of BMS across electric vehicle and energy storage applications.
Battery management systems are a critical component of safe and efficient electrification, ensuring optimal operation and protection of batteries in applications ranging from electric mobility to grid-scale storage. However, while much attention is given to batteries and control electronics, connectors are often the hidden factor that determines overall system reliability.
In this webinar, Hirose Electric will outline the key electrical, safety, and environmental requirements for BMS connectors and demonstrate how its portfolio – including the FX26, ZE05, ZG05, TB4, and EM30MSD series – meets the stringent demands of automotive and industrial applications. Attendees will gain practical insight into how to match connector families to on-board chargers, battery packs, and energy storage systems, helping to reduce design risks and ensure long-term system performance.
Key topics include:
- Critical connector design requirements for BMS applications
- Selecting the right solutions for EVs, battery packs, and energy storage systems
- Understanding automotive and industrial design scenarios
- Addressing safety, electrical, and environmental challenges in high-voltage systems
The webinar will be presented by Jason Wilson, Business Development Manager at Hirose Electric Europe, who brings more than thirty years of experience in electronics and connectivity. Having spent the past decade at Hirose, Jason has played a key role in expanding the company’s presence across the UK and Europe, supporting customers in adopting reliable, high-performance interconnect solutions.
The event will be hosted by Paige Hookway, Managing Editor, Electronic Specifier and will conclude with a live Q&A session where attendees can put their questions directly to the speaker.
