This cable is particularly suitable for a range of dedicated 3M IDC connectors. The following are typical of the range of 3M connectors: stock nos. 323-7845 and 121-0040.

Ribbon cabling is frequently used in computing and in communication applications. They are often used internally in electronic appliances, and are often used in hard drive wiring. Although they are limited to straight-run installations, they have advantages in that they can provide space efficient solutions to high data transmission. Ribbon cabling is often used in;

• Test and Measure
• Computing
• Robotics

3M is a trusted name in connector and wiring solutions, providing high quality cables, connectors and accessories. From industrial computing to domestic applications, 3M provides the reliable and versatile product range you need.

These cables are not to be regarded as power cables or cables for the direct connection of equipment to mains power supplies.

Easily customise your connections with this versatile ribbon cable from 3M. It comes unterminated in a length of 30 metres so you can cut it to the necessary size. The wires are stranded to give you maximum flexibility and minimise breakages. Thanks to a ten-colour repeat pattern on the jacket, it's easy to organise and identify individual wires. The wires are zippable for branching your connections, making this ribbon cable a versatile choice for making bespoke connections in your electronic equipment or components.

• Tinned copper wire material for high conductivity and a reliable connection
• PVC (polyvinyl chloride) jacket, making it flame-retardant and durable without reducing flexibility
• Wide operating temperature between -20°C and +105°C for use in industrial applications
• Commonly-used pitch of 1.27mm for high compatibility with standard connectors

• Electronics industry
• Industrial automation and robotics
• Test and measurement equipment
• Computing and telecommunications

The ribbon cable has 15 ways or connections. This makes it ideal for quick and simple mass termination in your electronics equipment.

UL; CSA

Ribbon cables provide a simple, quick and cost-effective solution to mass termination. They also have space and weight saving advantages over other wiring methods and are ideal for use on computers, peripherals, and interface units, audio and digital equipment.
