Unique-Bargains 50-Pin Flat Rainbow Ribbon Cable 43cm 2.54mm Pitch

SKU CH-QXDQ-N8TWV

A 50-pin flat rainbow ribbon cable with 2.54 mm pitch and female connectors for internal PCB wiring

  • TypeHI - Electrical & Industrial Wire
  • 50-pin IDC connector enables direct PCB insertion
  • 54 mm pitch matches standard header spacing
  • 43 cm rainbow cable simplifies internal routing
  • 63 mm total width fits tight equipment bays
  • Female connector design suits office and AV wiring

50-Pin Rainbow Ribbon Cable

This 50-pin flat rainbow ribbon cable measures 43 cm in length with a 2.54 mm pitch. It features a female connector at each end and a total width of 63 mm. The colour-coded conductors simplify identification during assembly. It is suited for hobbyists and technicians building or repairing internal wiring looms.

Direct PCB Insertion Design

The female connectors allow direct insertion onto standard 2.54 mm pitch pin headers without soldering. This arrangement frees up board space by eliminating individual wire routing. The 16.93-inch length fits typical enclosure spans while the 2.48-inch width matches standard header blocks. No additional crimping tools are required for installation.

Replaces Discrete Wire Harnesses

This cable replaces hand-assembled looms of single conductors, reducing build time and wiring errors. The jump is worth it when a project needs a reliable, repeatable 50-way connection with consistent pitch. It is not for applications requiring shielded signalling, high-current power distribution or connector locking mechanisms.

Questions about this item

How far can I route this 43 cm rainbow ribbon cable before signal integrity becomes the limiting factor?

The cable is 43 cm long with a 2.54 mm pitch; for typical low-speed signals this length is acceptable, but high-speed buses may need shorter runs or active buffering.

Does the 50-pin flat cable generate noticeable heat or noise when used continuously inside a chassis?

It is a passive plastic ribbon cable with no active components, so it produces no heat or audible noise during sustained operation.

What mating header must already be on my board for the female IDC connector to plug in directly?

You need a standard 50-pin male box header with 2.54 mm pin spacing that matches the cable’s 63 mm total width.
