How should "Besfestigungsmodule" be translated when speaking about a water bottle for runners which has particular parts that are attachable to other objects (like for example a bag).

clip module


Explanation:
I can envisage it being some sort of clip fastening component.

Marketing people would probably call it an "innovative multi-clip system"

The simplest description would be a "multifunctional bottle holder"

A "multi-clip system" if there are various different parts to it, like a belt clip, a bag clip and others
