This is a pack of "Dupont" style wires with Male to Male, Male to Female and Female to Female ends, and also included is a selection of housings in sizes from 2 through 20. Each wire is 20cm long (give or take).
This pack makes it really easy to build up your own multi-way cables in the correct order without needing any crimping or soldering, just pull off the single ends from the wires you want to glob together in a single housing, and plug them in! Removing the single housings just needs the use of a handy fingernail to lift the tab and slide it off.
Dupont connectors can fit into standard 2.54mm (0.1 inch, 100mil) PCB header pins and sockets, or of course can plug into each other. A standard cheap and easy method to connect wire to board or wire to wire for data and low current power.
Pack includes:
20 way Male to Male
20 way Male to Female (aka Female to Male)
20 way Female to Female
(Of course these 20 way wires can be just split apart to reduce them as need be.)
And housings as follows;
8 of 1x2
4 of 1x3
4 of 1x4
4 of 1x5
4 of 1x6
2 of 1x8
2 of 1x10
2 of 1x20
Notice that only "1x" housings are included, because to make a "2x" just use a dot of super glue and stick two of the "1x" in that size together, no need to be having twice as many types as you would ever need!
So grab yourself a pack and get to tidying up that mess-o-wires in your projects!
