A 150mm GPIO ribbon cable for Raspberry Pi with a 2×20 male connector on one end and a 2×20 female connector on the other. Extends the full 40-pin GPIO header for use with HATs, Bonnets, and other accessories at a distance from the board.
Works with any 40-pin Raspberry Pi, including the Pi 400 keyboard computer where direct HAT mounting isn't possible. Check the product images for pin configuration when using as a GPIO extender.
Key Features
- Male-to-Female – Socket plugs onto the Pi, plug side accepts HATs and accessories
- 150mm Length – Provides clearance between Pi and add-ons
- 2×20 Pin (40-Pin) – Extends all GPIO, I2C, SPI, power, and ground pins
- Flat Ribbon Construction – Neat, organised cable routing
Specifications
- Connector – 2×20 (40-pin) IDC
- Pitch – 2.54mm (0.1″)
- Cable Length – 150mm
- Ends – Male plug + female socket
Compatibility
- Any Raspberry Pi with a 40-pin GPIO header (A+, B+, 2, 3, 4, 5, Zero, 400)
Ideal For

- Enclosed builds requiring external GPIO access
- Prototyping with remote HAT mounting
Package Contents
- 1× 40-Pin GPIO Male-to-Female Ribbon Cable (150mm)
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- GPIO
- General-purpose input/output pins are microcontroller pins you can set in software to read signals, switch devices on and off, or connect to peripherals. The number of GPIO pins matters because it limits how many buttons, LEDs, sensors, and other parts you can wire directly to the board.
- 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.
