10cm dupont wire f to f

🔹 10cm Dupont Jumper Wire – Female to Female (F/F)

A standard 10-centimeter length female-to-female jumper wire with pre-crimped Dupont connectors on both ends. This wire is an essential component for creating temporary, solderless connections between male header pins on breakout boards, microcontrollers (like Arduino, Raspberry Pi), sensors, and other electronic modules during prototyping and testing.

✅ Specifications:

• Connector Type: Dupont (2.54mm / 0.1″ pitch)

• Connector Gender: Female to Female (Both ends have a female socket)

• Wire Length: 10 centimeters (Approx. 4 inches)

• Conductor: Stranded Copper (for flexibility)

• Wire Gauge: 22 AWG (Common standard)

• Insulation: PVC

• Pin Count: 1 pin per wire (Single-conductor jumper)

• Color: Available in standard rainbow colors (Red, Black, Yellow, Green, Blue, White, etc.) for easy circuit tracing.

• Termination: Pre-crimped connectors, ready to use.

⚙️ Key Features:

• Solderless Connections: Enables quick, reversible circuit building on breadboards and between modules.

• Standard Compatibility: The 2.54mm pitch matches the vast majority of hobbyist electronics, development boards, and sensors.

• Flexible & Durable: Stranded wire withstands repeated bending and insertion/removal.

• Color-Coded: Simplifies circuit debugging and organization (e.g., Red for VCC, Black for GND, other colors for signals).

• Pre-Crimped: No tools required; ready to use straight from the pack.

📦 Typical Applications:

• Arduino/Raspberry Pi Prototyping: Connecting sensors, displays, and actuators to GPIO pins.

• Breadboarding: Extending connections or linking different sections of a breadboard.

• Module Interconnection: Linking the male headers of different breakout boards (e.g., connecting an I2C sensor to an ESP32 dev board).

• Testing & Debugging: Probing signals, providing temporary power, or creating test points.

• Educational Electronics Kits: Fundamental component for hands-on learning circuits.

🔧 Usage Guide:

1. Connection: Simply push the female connector onto the desired male header pin on each device. Ensure a firm connection.

2. Organization: Use color conventions (Red = Power/VCC, Black/Brown = Ground/GND, other colors = Signals) to keep your project tidy and understandable.

3. Strain Relief: Avoid placing direct tension on the wire. Route wires neatly to prevent accidental disconnection.

4. Reusability: These wires are designed for many insertion cycles, but excessive force can loosen the connector’s grip over time.

⚠️ Limitations & Considerations:

• Current Rating: Rated for low-current signals and power (typically ≤ 1A). Not suitable for high-power motors, LEDs, or mains voltage.

• Not for Permanent Installations: Designed for prototyping. For final projects, consider soldering wires or using screw terminals for reliability.

• Connection Security: The friction-fit connection is good but not vibration-proof. For moving projects, secure wires with cable ties or hot glue.

• Length: The 10cm length is ideal for short connections on a crowded breadboard or between adjacent modules. For longer runs, choose a longer wire.
