Adafruit Jumper Wires 20 Pack

These premium extension jumper wires come as a 20-pin ribbon cable measuring six inches long with 28 AWG conductors. Each wire has a female connector on one end and a male connector on the other for extending existing connections. The ribbon can stay intact for tidy wiring or be separated into individual jumpers as needed.

Hobbyists and prototypers extending header pins

Makers who need to bridge female headers to male pins on development boards or breadboards will find these handy. Builders requiring longer reach than six inches or a different wire gauge should look at other options. Projects that demand soldered connections or high-current power distribution are not suited to these thin prototyping wires.

20-pin ribbon with female-to-male ends

The deciding specification is the 20-wire ribbon format with pre-crimped female and male terminations. This fixed six-inch length and 28 AWG thickness determine whether the wires fit your board spacing and current needs. If your layout needs a different pin count, length or wire size, this pack will not match.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 28 AWG jumpers are making solid contact after I plug them in?

Check that each female socket clicks onto the header pin and that the male end seats fully in the breadboard; a multimeter continuity test on a few wires will confirm the 28 AWG conductors are intact.

What exactly comes in the pack and is anything else required to start prototyping?

The pack contains a 20-wire ribbon cable with pre-crimped female and male connectors; no extra parts are needed, though you may want a breadboard or header strip to plug them into.

Should I choose the 6-inch length or a different size for my Arduino shield project?

This listing is the 6-inch version only; if you need longer or shorter reach you would have to order a different Adafruit jumper set.
