Common uses: high-end e-bikes, notably Specialized Turbo, where it charges through a magnetic port. Systems: Brose Drive / Specialized Turbo (Full Power).

The Rosenberger (also called Magcode) is a magnetic charge connector: it snaps on, self-aligns and pulls away cleanly if the cable is yanked. Specialized uses it on the Turbo range with a 42 V 4 A charger. It is proprietary, so a generic barrel or XLR charger will not connect.
