A matching pair of 1.25 mm pitch cables with 6-pin connectors — one inline socket and one plug — that friction-lock together for a secure, reliable connection. Each cable is 10 cm long, making them well suited for tight enclosures and compact builds.
Compatible with Molex PicoBlade connectors and any other 1.25 mm pitch headers. The pair can carry a couple of amps of current while maintaining a small form factor.
Key Features
- Matching Socket & Plug Pair – Inline connectors designed to mate with each other
- 1.25 mm Pitch – Ultra-slim profile for space-constrained applications
- Friction-Lock Mechanism – Secure, click-in connection that won't pull loose
- 10 cm Length Each – Short-run cables ideal for internal wiring
- 6 Pins – Suitable for multi-signal connections including I2C, SPI, or UART with extras
- Molex PicoBlade Compatible – Works with standard 1.25 mm pitch connectors
Ideal For
- Creating detachable connections between boards and sensors
- Internal wiring in compact enclosures and portable projects
- Prototyping with breakout boards that use 1.25 mm pitch headers
Package Contents
- 1× 1.25 mm pitch 6-pin socket cable (10 cm)
- 1× 1.25 mm pitch 6-pin plug cable (10 cm)
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- breakout
- A breakout board carries a small or fine-pitched component and brings its connections out to standard, breadboard- and header-friendly pins. Describing a part as a breakout means it can be wired into a project without soldering directly to the component's tiny contacts.
- 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.
- I2C
- I2C is a two-wire communication bus used by many sensors and small modules. It matters because several I2C devices can share the same two wires, but each device needs a compatible address and your controller must support I2C.
- SPI
- A fast serial communication bus often used for displays, memory cards, and sensors. It matters because SPI devices need specific pins for clock and data, plus a separate chip-select line for each device.
- UART
- UART is a simple asynchronous serial interface that sends data over separate transmit and receive wires, usually labelled TX and RX, with both ends set to the same baud rate. It is a common way for microcontrollers and other serial devices to exchange data.
