Definition
对接 originally refers to spacecraft docking and is now widely used for linking projects, systems, or departments with precise alignment. It differs from 接轨 (jiē guǐ), which suggests integrating into a larger standard or system (e.g., 'aligning with international practices'); 对接 emphasizes two separate sides coming together, while 接轨 implies joining a track or framework.
