# Connect

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page documents the **Connect node** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It merges individual geometries or arrays into one geometry — the counterpart to the Explode nodes, and the basis for treating assembled parts as a whole.

This Node can be used to combine individual geometries or geometry arrays into a single geometry. The reverse of this function can be found at the *Explode Mesh Islands* and *Explode Spline Segments* Nodes, with which you can also separate geometries composed of segments or shapes again.
