Patient Monitor Accessory Compatibility Matrix
Quick Answer: This cross-reference matrix helps BMETs identify the correct replacement accessory for any patient monitor brand. Use it as follows:
- Find your brand in the left column of the parameter-specific table (SpO2, ECG, NIBP, IBP, Temperature)
- Match the module or connector type — especially critical for SpO2 (FAST vs. OxiMax vs. TruSignal) and IBP (Abbott, Edwards, Utah, BD, B.Braun)
- Click the MedLinket part number to view the product page with ISO 13485 / FDA 510(k) specifications
Covers Philips, GE, Mindray, Dräger, Nihon Kohden, and 10+ additional brands.

All Accessories Browse by BrandFrequently Asked Questions
Can I use the same SpO2 sensor on both Philips and GE monitors?
Not directly — Philips FAST and GE TruSignal use different technologies. However, if both monitors have the same optional SpO2 module (e.g., both have Nellcor OxiMax modules), you can use the same sensor family with brand-specific adapter cables — for example, the Nellcor DS-100A compatible sensor works across any Nellcor module regardless of monitor brand. Always match the sensor to the installed module, not the monitor brand. For technology identification, see our SpO2 connector pinout reference.
Are NIBP cuffs interchangeable between monitor brands?
The cuffs themselves are often brand-independent — the brand-specific component is the hose connector. Use the correct hose (such as the Mindray 6200-30-09688 NIBP hose for BeneVision/iPM/iMEC) with the right connector for your brand, then attach any compatible cuff. See our NIBP hose connector specifications for connector type details by brand.
How do I find the right replacement accessory for my monitor model?
Use the compatibility tables above — find your brand and model, then follow the product links. For electrical connector verification, see the linked parameter-specific guides. For brand-specific service details, see our Philips & GE guide or Mindray guide.
Do ECG cables use the same connector across all Philips IntelliVue models?
Yes, all IntelliVue monitors (MX, MP, X3) use the same 12-pin round trunk cable connector — the Philips M1669A 3-lead trunk cable and M1668A 5-lead trunk cable cover the entire IntelliVue fleet with one set. SureSigns and Efficia may differ — always verify by model. See our ECG connector identification guide.
Can I use a Mindray temperature probe on a Philips monitor with an adapter?
Not directly — adapter cables are brand-specific. However, if both use YSI 400 thermistors (most current models do), you can use the same YSI 400 reusable probe with different brand-specific adapter cables — for example, the YSI 409B universal skin probe connects to either brand through the appropriate adapter. See our YSI 400 vs 700 comparison for thermistor compatibility.
What does "technology-locked" mean for SpO2 compatibility?
Technology-locked means the SpO2 module only accepts sensors from one technology family. A Masimo SET module rejects Nellcor or Philips FAST sensors with an "incompatible sensor" error. The lock is in the digital handshake, not just the connector. Match the sensor technology to the installed module. For evaluation criteria when sourcing compatible sensors, see our third-party evaluation framework.
