Ribbon cable S/CONN 79016-10 16-pin Grey 10m

The ShiverPeaks ribbon cable S/CONN 79016-10 is a 16-pin, grey flat cable with a length of 10 meters, designed for reliable internal wiring and data transmission in electronic systems. Its flat, ribbon-style construction enables orderly routing in equipment racks, control panels, and prototyping setups, while the multi-conductor layout supports parallel signal paths and easy connector termination.

Advantages

The flat 16-conductor design reduces cable bulk and simplifies parallel wiring. A 10 m length provides extended reach for linking components across larger enclosures or between adjacent devices. The grey outer insulation offers neutral appearance and easy visual integration into equipment. The cable is compatible with standard 16-pin IDC and similar connectors, allowing straightforward installation and predictable signal routing.

Suitable for

• Internal connections in industrial control cabinets and automation systems
• Wiring between PCB headers and daughter boards in electronic assemblies
• Prototyping and laboratory setups requiring multiple parallel signal lines
• Retrofit or repair work where extended cable length is necessary

Key specifications

• 16 conductors (parallel ribbon configuration)
• Length: 10 meters
• Color: grey
• Flat ribbon construction for compact routing
• Insulation suitable for standard low-voltage signal transmission

How to use

Measure the required run and cut the ribbon cable to length using appropriate scissors or cable shears. For reliable termination, use a compatible 16-pin IDC (insulation displacement) connector or solder individual conductors to PCB pads as required. Maintain correct conductor orientation when inserting into connectors to preserve signal order. Secure the cable with cable ties or adhesive mounts to prevent strain on terminations and avoid tight bends that may damage conductors.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, keep the ribbon cable away from high-voltage or high-current wiring to minimize interference. If the application involves sensitive analog signals, consider adding shielding or using twisted pairs for those specific circuits. Verify connector compatibility before installation and avoid excessive mechanical stress on the cable during routing and assembly.
