Unique-Bargains IDC DB25 Female to FC-26 Female 2.54mm 20cm 2pcs

SKU CH-PMB9-RETWH

A 20 cm ribbon cable bridges a DB25 female port to a 26-pin FC female connector on a 2.54 mm pitch for compact circuit interconnects

  • TypeCable Connectors
  • DB25 to FC-26 link connects legacy and modern boards
  • 54mm pitch ensures reliable signal alignment across 26 conductors
  • 20cm length fits tight chassis without cable clutter
  • Colour-coded ribbon simplifies identification during assembly
  • Two cables included for spare or dual-channel setups

Connector Type & Pin Count

This pack contains two IDC flat ribbon cables, each with a DB25 female connector on one end and an FC-26 female connector on the other. The FC side uses a 2.54mm pitch across 26 pins. They suit hobbyists and technicians linking legacy ports to modern board headers.

Ribbon Cable Handling

The 20cm ribbon measures 32mm wide and separates easily for clean terminations with standard wire connectors. Colour-coded conductors simplify identification during assembly. The flat profile saves space inside tight enclosures and reduces clutter compared to round cables.

Build Integration

Each cable bridges a DB25 interface to a 26-pin FC header, freeing the builder from hand-crimping individual wires. The 20cm length fits internal board-to-board links in devices such as 3D printers, LCD panels or test rigs. Buyers needing longer reach or a different pin count should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How do I align the 2.54mm pitch FC-26 connector with the DB25 socket without bending pins?

Match the red-stripe edge of the 20cm ribbon to pin 1 on both the DB25 female and FC-26 female ends; press straight in — forcing at an angle bends the 26 pins.

When should I replace the ribbon cable if the 32mm wide conductors start to fray?

Swap the cable when any conductor separates from the flat ribbon or insulation cracks appear, otherwise intermittent signals will develop on the 26-pin interface.

What length limit causes signal loss first on a 20cm DB25 to FC-26 ribbon run?

The 20cm length is already near the practical maximum for unshielded 2.54mm pitch ribbon; extending it further degrades the DB25 parallel signals first.
