Description:
The 6 Way IDC Polarised Male Header Connector – Pack of 5 is an essential component for establishing robust and secure ribbon cable connections in digital, embedded, and industrial electronic systems. Designed for use with 1.27mm pitch ribbon cables and 2.54mm standard grid PCBs, these IDC connectors ensure proper alignment and prevent reverse insertion through their keyed polarisation notch.
Each connector features a dual-row, 3×2 pin configuration compatible with 6-way IDC female sockets. The through-hole mount design allows for strong mechanical retention on PCBs, while the polarised design ensures correct cable orientation. These connectors are widely used in applications such as microcontroller interfaces, ISP programming headers, and signal routing between PCBs. Supplied in a convenient 5-pack, they are ideal for prototyping, production, or repair work where reliable and repeatable cable connectivity is required.
