A slim, reliable 1.25 mm pitch cable with 8-pin connectors on both ends and a 20 cm length. The friction-lock connectors provide a secure, satisfying click for lightweight connectivity where standard 0.1" headers or JST PH connectors are too bulky.
This cable uses 1:N reversed wiring, meaning pin 1 on one connector maps to pin 8 on the other, pin 2 to pin 7, and so on. Molex PicoBlade compatible.
Key Features
-
1.25 mm Pitch Connectors – Ultra-slim profile for space-constrained builds
-
1:N Reversed Wiring – Pin order is mirrored from one end to the other
-
Friction-Lock Mechanism – Secure, click-in connection that won't pull loose
-
20 cm Length – Convenient short-run cable for internal wiring
-
8 Pins – Suitable for multi-signal connections
-
Molex PicoBlade Compatible – Works with standard 1.25 mm pitch connectors
Ideal For
- Connecting breakout boards and sensors with 1.25 mm pitch headers
- Internal wiring in compact enclosures and portable projects
- Replacing bulkier JST PH or 0.1" dupont connections
Package Contents
- 1× 1.25 mm pitch 8-pin cable (20 cm, 1:N wiring)
Note: This cable uses 1:N (reversed) wiring. Pin 1 connects to pin 8, pin 2 to pin 7, etc. If you need straight-through 1:1 wiring, check the 1:1 cable variants.
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.
- JST PH
-
A small keyed plug-and-socket connector with 2 mm pin spacing, often used for low-power electronics connections. You need the correct JST PH cable, and its current rating limits how much power should be passed through it.
- pH
-
A measure of how acidic or alkaline a liquid is, on a scale from 0 to 14 where 7 is neutral, lower is acidic and higher is alkaline. When a probe or sensor quotes a pH range and accuracy, check they cover the readings your project needs.
