It also participates in 9 confusable-pair relationships, "contar", "constar", "contatar", and more, since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
No explicit etymology string is stored for this entry, so its spelling is easiest explained by how it's pronounced rather than where it came from. The correct Portuguese form is conectar, spelled C-O-N-E-C-T-A-R.
