Hey Nathaniel, the Rich Solar Mega 250 Solar Panel - 12V - 250 Watts # RS35FR has mc4 connectors which usually run to a charge controller, which would then connect to the prewired solar port on your trailer.
If you don't have that yet, I would just go with a complete kit like # RS37VR which includes a controller and everything necessary for your trailer to get the solar power it desires.
What kind of trailer do you have?
