Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables

Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables (FJH-20-R-14.00-4) are generally used in applications that require connectors which are very small in size and can be used in tight spaces. These cables are typically multicolored, which makes them easy to identify and trace a specific connection. These cables have two ends, one connected to the device being connected and one connected to the connector. The cable is a flat ribbon design, which has a flexible and modular construction, enabling easy installation and customization for various applications.

Application Field

Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables are ideal for use in computer systems, home audio and video systems, mobile phones, medical devices, machine vision applications, and point-of-sale systems. They are reusable and replaceable in most applications. Compared with wire cables, they are much lighter and more flexible, thus increasing the efficiency of the circuit. They can also reduce interference in communication systems and high-precision equipment.

Working Principle

Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables are produced using a combination of etching techniques and precision drilling. The etching process helps to create a uniform shape and conductor path. This combined with the precision hole prevents the cables from flexing too much, which maintains the necessary contacts and connections. The ribbon-like structure helps to keep the cables in one piece and stop them separating. The flexibility of the cable also enhances the contact area between the device and connector.

Advantages

Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables have several advantages over wire cables and other connectors. Due to their design, they are incredibly thin and lightweight, making them ideal for installations in tight spaces. The addition of insulation further enhances their durability and reduces interference. Their flexibility also allows for easy installation and increases the contact area between devices, leading to better conductance and signal strength. The cables are also easy to identify and trace when working on multiple complex systems.

Disadvantages

Although Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables have several advantages, they do have some disadvantages. Firstly, due to their thin and flexible design, they can be prone to breaking, especially in applications where they are subjected to constant movement and regular wear and tear. The precision drilling that is used to keep them in one piece also raises production costs. Furthermore, compared to wire cables, they have a lower heat capacity and lower current carrying capacity.

Conclusion

Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables are the perfect choice for a wide variety of applications. They are thin, lightweight, and highly flexible, making them ideal for installations in tight spaces. In addition, their ease of installation and customization makes them a preferred option in many applications. While they do have some drawbacks, such as a tendency to break and higher production costs, they are still an excellent choice in many cases.
