40 Pin 2.54mm Ribbon Cable

This MECCANIXITY flat ribbon cable provides a 40 pin, female-to-female connection with a 2.54mm pitch. The multi-colored conductors use copper wire and measure approximately two feet in length. It is designed for internal wiring in computers, instruments, appliances, and LED displays.

Hobbyists and repair technicians

The cable suits builders prototyping IDC connections or replacing internal harnesses in equipment that uses 2.54mm headers. It will not work for applications requiring a different pin count, male terminals, or a pitch other than 2.54mm.

Sustained signal integrity

Copper conductors and flame-retardant insulation maintain consistent performance during continuous operation. The flat construction resists corrosion and tolerates repeated bending inside tight chassis without degrading the connection.

Questions about this item

What connectors must my boards already have to use this 40-pin 2.54 mm pitch ribbon cable?

Your boards need IDC headers with a 2.54 mm pin pitch that accept the female sockets on both ends of the cable.

Will this cable work with older equipment that uses the same 2.54 mm spacing?

Yes, the 2.54 mm pitch matches legacy IDC headers, so the cable connects to older boards and peripherals that use that spacing.

How can I verify the cable is functioning correctly after I connect it?

Check for continuity across all 40 conductors and confirm that signals pass without shorts between adjacent pins.
