AZDelivery Flex Ribbon Cable 50cm (20 inches) FFC Ribbon Extension Cable compatible with Raspberry Pi Camera Module/Display Including E-Book! (Pack of 5)

I've been building a 3D printer and wanted to fit a camera for time lapse photography to enable prints to be recorded. The issue with the Pi Cam is that they come supplied with a ribbon cable barely long enough to reach outside the Raspberry Pi enclosure. I bought this longer length cable so I could fit the camera onto my Tronxy X5S bed frame and allow sufficient movement to allow full travel of the Z Axis (400mm) whilst the other end connected to my Raspberry Pi located in an electronics enclosure on the front of the machine.. It works fine and the connection is exactly the same as the standard ribbon cable. Just make sure you get them the right way around in the connectors.

Compared to the higher quality cables that come with the camera, this cable is thinner (that may be an advantage as it's slightly more flexible) and the ink is lighter. It does not have the RU mark either. The blue stiffening tabs on the ends of the cable seem OK. That said, it works fine with the Pi cam (I have the v2) so far and it's good for long runs e.g. for mounting on the Z-axis of a 3D printer.

This product arrived in an envelope, and upon opening it. the cable was kinked and twisted to such an extent that the wiring traces are completely ruined. Cannot recommend at all based on my experience

Not much to say really. They are good quality cables and do the job. Delivery was prompt and I was able to buy a sensible number.

Nice one. Good ribbon cables. Slight hiccup with order but otherwise very good.

Works great with Pi Cameras

Great length and easy to install, very happy with it.

Delivered on time and the cables worked as expected.
