JST XH 2.54mm 6-Pin Cable Connector Both Sided — Same Side & Reverse, Custom Length

JST XH 2.54mm 6-Pin Both-Sided Connector Cable — Same Side & Reverse Polarity, 22AWG

Six conductors, both ends factory-crimped, ready to use. This JST XH 2.54mm 6-pin both-sided cable serves the extension and interconnect requirements of LCD display interfaces, dual stepper motor assemblies, full SPI buses with interrupt lines, and 6-wire keypad matrices. Available in Same Side (straight-through) and Reverse Side (mirrored) configurations to match the connector orientation required by your PCB layout.

Twelve contacts (six per end) are machine-crimped to a defined pull-force specification. In a 6-wire interface, a single failed crimp can corrupt display data, cause motor missteps, or drop SPI transactions. Factory crimping eliminates this risk by applying consistent, calibrated force to every contact — producing assemblies that perform reliably under vibration, thermal cycling, and thousands of mating cycles.

22AWG stranded copper wire rated at 3A/250V. Positive latch locks on both ends. Available in 8 lengths from 10cm to 80cm and 8 wire colors.

Same Side vs. Reverse Side — Which Do You Need?

Same Side (Straight-Through): Pin 1 connects to pin 1 at both ends. Use for LCD extensions, SPI bus extensions, and any application where both connectors face the same direction with identical pinouts.

Reverse Side (Mirrored): Pin 1 connects to pin 6 (and pin 2 to pin 5, pin 3 to pin 4). Use when connectors face opposite directions or when the PCB layout requires a mirrored pinout at one end.

Typical Applications

• LCD & Display Extensions: Character LCD module extensions (HD44780), graphic display connections, TFT display data bus extensions
• Dual Stepper Motor Wiring: Dual-axis motor extension cables with enable lines, CNC shield motor output extensions
• Full SPI with Interrupt: SPI bus extensions (MOSI/MISO/SCK/CS/INT/GND) for high-speed ADCs, DACs, and display controllers
• 3D Printers: Multi-function toolhead extension cables, dual-extrusion hotend wiring extensions
• Keypad & Matrix Input: 6-wire membrane keypad extensions, button matrix interface cables
• Arduino & Microcontrollers: Multi-peripheral shield extensions, analog sensor array leads
• Industrial & Automation: Multi-channel relay module connections, 6-wire encoder extensions

Compatibility

Both ends are compatible with JST XH series 6-pin housings (JST part: XHP-6) and all 2.54mm pitch PCB headers with XH-compatible locking geometry.

Housings not included. This listing is for the pre-crimped cable only. Select your required polarity (Same Side or Reverse Side) and length from the variant options above.
