Imapct of Trumph Tariff on Electronics and Electrical Industry

In 2025, global trade has entered a period of renewed volatility as the U.S., under President Donald Trump, introduced sweeping tariffs known as the Liberation Day Tariffs. Aimed at addressing trade imbalances and foreign supply chain dominance, the tariffs range from 10% on allies like Australia and the UK to 46% on Vietnamese goods and 34% on Chinese imports. A 25% universal tariff on steel, aluminum, and auto parts has further strained global trade ties. The electronics sector is among the hardest hit, particularly due to the escalating U.S.China trade war. Tariffs on Chinese goods now reach up to 145% in sectors like semiconductors and consumer electronics, while China has retaliated with up to 125% duties and restrictions on critical mineral exports. This has disrupted just-in-time supply chains and increased component costs.

Specific tariffs include 25% on semiconductors, 20% on lithium-ion batteries, and 10–15% on consumer electronics like laptops and tablets, leading to higher retail prices and reduced consumer demand. Sub-sectors such as home automation, computer hardware, communication electronics, medical devices, and industrial electronics are all under pressure due to rising input costs and supply chain delays. Companies are revisiting suppliers, shifting sourcing to countries like India, Mexico, and Vietnam, and redesigning products to avoid high-tariff components.

China remains a key player, contributing USD 119 billion in electronics exports to the U.S. in 2023. Even components routed through countries like Malaysia and Vietnam often rely on Chinese subparts, making the ripple effect of tariffs widespread. U.S. electronics firms operating on thin margins are seeing input costs rise 18–25%, with contract manufacturers in alternative regions facing capacity constraints.

Market research is now critical. It helps companies identify new suppliers, analyze cost trends, optimize product design, forecast demand shifts, and track regulatory changes. Tools like supplier mapping, BOM optimization, and scenario planning support strategic responses to ongoing disruptions. Leading firms like Apple and Dell are expanding production outside China, while others invest in digital supply chain tools and redesign products for cost resilience. In this evolving trade environment, firms that leverage research-driven strategies are better positioned to adapt and thrive.

Industrial Ethernet Connectors Market Analysis

Industrial Ethernet Connectors, by type

RJ45 Connectors 

The RJ45 Connectors segment Revenue will be USD 427.78 Million by 2029.

Industrial RJ45 connectors are rectangular data connectors created for Ethernet networking in industrial applications. It supports 10/100Mbps and 1Gbps data speeds. The RJ45 product range includes a variety of form factors, RJ45 jacks, Ethernet magnetics, and field-installable cable connections, as well as Power over Ethernet (PoE), PoE+, and PoE++ capabilities (IEEE802.3at and IEEE802.3bt).

M12 Connectors

The M12 connection technique is widely used in sensor-actuator and Fieldbus cabling and offers a number of benefits in industrial settings. M12 connectors used in industrial automation and control applications are becoming increasingly common. M12 connectors were created with the purpose of addressing the demand for data collecting and control capabilities in challenging situations.
