8STA is a highly reliable micro miniature connector series with quick mating system dedicated to autosport applications like formula 1, rallye car, moto GP.

Motorsports is a market where more and more electronics are installed and where space and weight constraints become increasingly critical. The 8STA and 8TA Series are miniature circular connectors that are designed to be smaller and lighter with high reliability features to ensure the driver's safety. These two series, especially the 8STA, are the preferred motorsport connectors, and are used across the world of competitive motorsport – both on 2 wheels and 4 wheels for sensors and systems.

8STA and 8TA circular connectors are derived from international military specifications MIL-DTL-38999 and JN1003, and therefore are naturally designed to withstand high levels of shock and vibration in harsh environments.
