Design Considerations for Single-Use Medical Connectors
Key factors for single-use connectors — from materials to validation.
Read More →Gii is the cable and connector design-to-manufacturing specialist for energy-based medical devices. Bring us in early — we help define the requirements, prototype the solution, and de-risk it all the way to volume production.
OEMs don’t pay for more risk. They want fast, well-engineered solutions they can trust through approval and into production. That’s what these three pillars are built to deliver.
The cheapest time to get an interconnect right is before it’s designed in. Our engineers work with your team while connector choices, materials, and manufacturability are still open.
Our quality system is built around the documentation burden of medical devices — so your interconnect never becomes the weak link in your regulatory file.
Manufacturing in two regions means we can plan resilience into your program before launch — not scramble for it after a disruption.
Global Interconnect, Inc. (Gii) specializes in medical device cables and connectors, offering engineering design and rapid prototyping in the US along with manufacturing in Asia and Central America.
Our focus is energy-based medical devices, including radiofrequency (RF), ultrasonic, laser, and electrosurgical systems. We serve device makers in cardiac electrophysiology, orthopedics, urology, oncology, and pain management.
Our Engineering First approach is most valuable at the start of a program — when connector choices, materials, and manufacturability are still being decided, and getting them right protects your schedule, your approvals, and your costs.

We match each part of your program to the right facility across our Americas and Asia manufacturing network — guided by US-based engineering — for the best quality and cost.
Wire-cut to 100%-tested final unit — high-flex, shielded, coaxial, and multi-conductor.
Purpose-built connectors that meet your exact requirements — at a fraction of the branded off-the-shelf price.
In-house lubricity, biocompatible, and electrical-performance coatings, validated for single-use or reusable devices.
Cable-to-connector subassembly through complete device builds — when you need one accountable partner.
We review your designs for hidden cost — excess contacts, over-specified materials, needless complexity — on every program.
Share your requirements or early design — our engineers will review the interconnect with you before decisions get locked in.
Bring Us In EarlyMost interconnect problems — cost, reliability, lead time — are designed in long before production. Engaging a specialist early lets our engineers shape those decisions while changes are still easy. Here’s what that delivers.
We review your design for manufacturability before any part is made — catching costly choices like excess contacts and over-specified materials while they’re still easy to change.
When a catalog connector can’t meet your size, voltage, or cost requirements, our engineers design one that does — matched to your performance and regulatory needs.
US-based engineering and rapid prototyping, with production at our nearshore facility in Heredia, Costa Rica or our manufacturing operations in Asia — no hand-off to a stranger when you scale.
FDA-registered, ISO 13485, and 100% electrically tested — with the DHR/DHF documentation your submissions depend on.
A $5 billion orthopedics OEM was paying a premium they didn't need to. Here's what happened when they brought Gii in.
Their contract manufacturer juggled multiple vendors — connectors, cable, and PCBs sourced separately, then assembled in-house. Complicated, costly, and no one had the expertise to fix it.
Gii designed a drop-in replacement connector — no OEM capital or equipment changes. Components dropped from six to two, pins moved from machined gold to stamped gold-flash, and we consolidated cable, connectors, and PCBs under one roof — ramping from 1,000 to 20,000 pieces per week.
US-based engineering and rapid prototyping, with flexible manufacturing across the Americas and Asia — including nearshore Heredia, Costa Rica for proximity, US time-zone alignment, and simpler supply chains.
For OEMs facing tariffs and long Asia lead times, our Costa Rica facility is a proven alternative — no compromise on quality, capacity, or cost.
Eastern-to-Pacific alignment for real-time collaboration — no overnight lag.
Days, not weeks, in transit versus Asia — ideal for just-in-time and expedites.
Fully outside current US–China tariff structures — insulated from trade-policy swings.
A short flight from any US hub — audits, reviews, and launches on-site in hours.
Three decades of medical cable and connector engineering — shared to help you design smarter, cost less, and launch faster.
