A Comprehensive Guide to Ribbon Cables
A ribbon cable is a type of optical fiber cable design consisting of multiple fibers that are fused together into a flat ribbon.
Ribbon cable
Ribbon cables are usually specified by two numbers: the spacing or pitch of the conductors, and the number of conductors or ways. A spacing of 0.05 inch (1.27 mm) is the most usual, allowing for a two-row connector with a pin spacing of 0.1 inch (2.54 mm). These types are used for many types of equipment, in particular for interconnections within an enclosure. For personal computers, this size was used in f
