CONNECTORS

Golden plugs contain a very high amount of gold.

Gold-plated 6-leg connectors commonly found on telecom GSM boards

NEC HMC‑25B is an epoxy-encapsulated hybrid RF signal filter built on legacy manufacturing technology. It’s especially valuable for recycling due to its high palladium content—ideal for recovering precious metals from e-waste.

Metal-coated connector module with contact points and electromagnetic shielding. Used in industrial or telecommunication equipment. Suitable for recycling – contains a significant amount of palladium and a small amount of gold. Siemens

Gold-plated AGP contacts are often one of the most valuable parts of a circuit board. Using an XRF device with the precious metals function, gold content can be estimated quickly and reliably. If the reading shows less than 20% gold, it typically indicates around 5000 ppm – helping recyclers and buyers make fast, data-driven decisions during sorting.

Gold-plated AGP contacts are often one of the most valuable parts of a circuit board. Using an XRF device with the precious metals function, gold content can be estimated quickly and reliably. If the reading shows less than 5% gold, it typically indicates around 500 ppm – helping recyclers and buyers make fast, data-driven decisions during sorting.

Used Infineon RF power amplifiers for high-frequency signal transmission, now recycled for gold and cooper.
