For cable assemblies, MOQ is 5 units. Sample orders of 1-5 units available at slightly higher unit price. Volume discounts apply at 50, 100, 500, and 1000+ unit quantities. Unlike competitors requiring 100+ unit MOQs, our low MOQ allows you to test before committing to large orders. No MOQ for custom engineering consultations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>HYSF Minimum Order Quantities<\/h2>\n<h3>Standard MOQ by Product Type<\/h3>\n<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"8\">\n<tr>\n<th>Product Type<\/th>\n<th>Standard MOQ<\/th>\n<th>Sample MOQ<\/th>\n<th>Merknader<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Standard connectors<\/td>\n<td>10 units<\/td>\n<td>1-5 units<\/td>\n<td>Per part number<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Miniature connectors (MCM)<\/td>\n<td>10 units<\/td>\n<td>1-5 units<\/td>\n<td>Per part number<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Rectangular connectors (MCR)<\/td>\n<td>10 units<\/td>\n<td>1-5 units<\/td>\n<td>Per part number<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Bulkhead connectors<\/td>\n<td>10 units<\/td>\n<td>1-5 units<\/td>\n<td>Per part number<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Standard cable assemblies<\/td>\n<td>5 units<\/td>\n<td>1-2 units<\/td>\n<td>Per configuration<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Custom cable assemblies<\/td>\n<td>10 units<\/td>\n<td>1-2 units<\/td>\n<td>NRE fee may apply<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Custom connectors<\/td>\n<td>50 units<\/td>\n<td>N\/A<\/td>\n<td>NRE fee required<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Sample Orders<\/h3>\n<p>For evaluation and testing, we offer:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sample quantity:<\/strong> 1-5 units per part number<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sample pricing:<\/strong> 20-30% above MOQ pricing<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lead time:<\/strong> 3-5 days for in-stock items<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shipping:<\/strong> Customer pays express shipping<\/li>\n<li><strong>S\u00f8knad:<\/strong> Must be for evaluation\/testing (not resale)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Volume Pricing Tiers<\/h3>\n<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"8\">\n<tr>\n<th>Quantity<\/th>\n<th>Rabatt<\/th>\n<th>Example: 4-pin MCBH<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10-49 units<\/td>\n<td>Standard price<\/td>\n<td>$100\/unit<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>50-99 units<\/td>\n<td>5% discount<\/td>\n<td>$95\/unit<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>100-499 units<\/td>\n<td>10% discount<\/td>\n<td>$90\/unit<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>500-999 units<\/td>\n<td>15% discount<\/td>\n<td>$85\/unit<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1000+ units<\/td>\n<td>20%+ discount<\/td>\n<td>$80\/unit or less<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<h3>Why Our Low MOQ Matters<\/h3>\n<h4>For R&#038;D and Prototyping<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Test connectors in your actual application before large orders<\/li>\n<li>Minimize upfront investment in unproven designs<\/li>\n<li>Iterate quickly with small batches<\/li>\n<li>Reduce risk of obsolete inventory<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>For Small Projects<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Order exactly what you need, no excess<\/li>\n<li>Better cash flow management<\/li>\n<li>No warehouse space wasted on excess inventory<\/li>\n<li>Flexibility to change suppliers if needed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>For Maintenance &#038;
