These 2×5-pin crimp connector housings let you quickly build custom cables that mate with standard 0.1" (2.54mm) spaced connectors. Pair them with pre-crimped terminal wires or crimp pins to create reliable, removable ten-wire connections in a compact dual-row housing.

Compatible with male and female dual-row headers, solderless breadboards, and other 0.1"-pitch connectors. Just pick your wire colours and genders, and snap them into the housing. You can easily build cable harnesses that branch from one connector to multiple connectors on the other end, or cut off one pre-crimped end and solder wires directly to components.

Key Features

  • 0.1" (2.54mm) Pitch – Industry-standard spacing for broad compatibility
  • 2×5-Pin Configuration – Compact dual-row housing for ten-wire connections
  • Versatile Compatibility – Works with dual-row male headers, female headers, and solderless breadboards
  • Snap-In Design – Pre-crimped terminal wires snap securely into place

Ideal For

  • Ten-wire cable assemblies (AVR ISP, JTAG connections)
  • Prototyping and breadboard projects
  • Custom wiring harnesses with branching connections

Package Contents

  • 5× Crimp connector housings (2×5-pin)
Note: Once wires are snapped into the housing, they are difficult to remove — plan your cable layout carefully. Crimp pins and pre-crimped wires are sold separately.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

AVR
AVR is a family of 8-bit microcontrollers (made by Microchip, formerly Atmel) used in many classic Arduino-style boards such as the Uno and Nano. They are widely supported but older, which can be a limit for memory- or speed-intensive tasks.
Headers
Rows of connector contacts on a fixed pitch (commonly 2.54 mm) used to link a board to a breadboard, jumper wires, or another board. They come as male pin headers and female socket headers; when a module ships with pre-soldered headers it can be used straight away, whereas bare pads require soldering the pins yourself.
ISP
In electronics, ISP usually means In-System Programming, a way to load firmware onto a microcontroller while it stays on the board (often via an ICSP header), or an Image Signal Processor, hardware that turns raw camera sensor data into usable images and offloads the main CPU. The surrounding context shows which meaning applies.
JTAG
JTAG is a hardware debugging and programming interface used to inspect and control chips at a low level. It matters for advanced development because it can help diagnose firmware problems that are hard to see through normal serial output.
