Flat Flex, Ribbon Jumper Cables and Their Application Field and Working Principles

Introduction

Ribbon jumper cables are composed of flat, flexible strips of conductive metal wires laminated between two insulating films. The metal conductor strips, which may be copper or aluminum, are arranged side by side in parallel staggered rows. Flat flex cables can be used in a variety of applications, such as connecting computers, printers, and other electrical devices to the main board, connecting circuits within electronic components, and connecting parts of electronic systems. These types of cables are also commonly referred to as ribbon cable, flat flexing cable, flat cable, and flat flat wire.

Product Construction and Type

Current ribbon jumper cables are available in two primary connection systems – FJH-50-D-15.00-4 and FJH-50-S-15.00-4. Both connection systems use a single piece of flexible cable as the primary connection system between electronic components sold by Ulincos Automation. One system is designed primarily for wall mounted applications – the FJH-50-D – which is a double-sided, crimp-style connection system with connectors that plug directly into wall-mounted wall-mounted outlets. The other system – FJH-50-S – is a single-sided system that connects components using solderless terminals known as SMD (surface mount devices) with a connection system through which multiple systems are daisy chained.

Application Field and Working Principles

The application fields of the FJH-50-D-15.00-4 and FJH-50-S-15.00-4 ribbon jumper cables vary depending on the application in which they are used. Generally speaking, FJH-50-D-15.00-4 ribbon jumper cables are used in data, voice, power, and video applications as well as in wiring harnesses. FJH-50-S-15.00-4 ribbon jumper cables provide a single-sided connection system which can be used in applications such as wiring for high density applications and in power distribution applications.

The working principle of the FJH-50-D-15.00-4 is based on crimping. Crimping allows for the connections between two pieces of metal strips to be made quickly and efficiently. When the two metal strips are crimped together, the metal strips become a conductor that forms an electrical connection. On the other hand, the FJH-50-S-15.00-4 system uses solderless terminals, which are attached to the ends of the metal strips and are designed to provide a reliable connection that can withstand high temperatures.

Conclusion

Ribbon jumper cables are used in a variety of applications and are available in two primary connection systems – FJH-50-D-15.00-4 and FJH-50-S-15.00-4. FJH-50-D-15.00-4 ribbon jumper cables are used in data, voice, power, and video applications as well as in wiring harnesses. FJH-50-S-15.00-4 ribbon jumper cables provide a single-sided connection system which can be used in applications such as wiring for high density applications and in power distribution applications. The working principle of these two systems are based on crimping and solderless terminals, respectively.
