Cabo flat CradlePoint 170680-001, conector GPIO, 1,7 m, preto

CradlePoint 170680-001 is a 1.7 m ribbon cable with male GPIO connectors in a black jacket, designed for board-level and embedded connections. It provides compact multi-conductor routing for signal distribution between modules and peripheral interfaces, and includes four GPIO lines, a second ignition sense input and redundant power conductors to support resilient integration in industrial or networking hardware.

Advantages

This ribbon cable offers a slim profile and predictable conductor layout that simplifies routing in space-constrained systems. The male GPIO connectors enable straightforward mating with board headers, while the included second ignition sense and redundant power conductors increase reliability for applications that require backup power detection or fault tolerance. The black outer jacket provides a neutral appearance and basic environmental protection suited to many indoor embedded installations.

Suitable for

• Board-to-board and board-to-module signal connections in embedded systems
• Networking hardware expansions and peripheral interface linking
• Industrial control equipment where additional GPIO and ignition sensing are required
• Applications that benefit from redundant power wiring for improved fault tolerance

Key specifications

• Cable length: 1.7 m
• Connector type: male GPIO ribbon connectors
• Color: black outer jacket
• Conductors: multi-conductor flat ribbon suitable for signal and low-voltage power routing
• Features: four GPIO lines, second ignition sense input, redundant power conductors

How to use

Identify the matching GPIO header on the device and align the cable's keyed orientation before seating the male connector to avoid miswiring. Route the ribbon cable to minimize sharp bends and avoid contact with heat sources or moving parts. Use appropriate strain relief or cable ties to secure the cable and prevent connector stress. Verify pin assignments on both connected devices to ensure correct mapping of GPIO, ignition sense, and power conductors prior to applying power.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, keep runs within the specified length and avoid excessive bending radius; use short, direct routing for power conductors and maintain separation from high-voltage or high-current cables. When integrating the cable into industrial or mobile systems, confirm ignition sensing thresholds and implement appropriate protection such as fuses or transient suppression on power lines.
