RE: Ribbon Cable Extenders ? - jodybrown99 - 08-02-2016

i bought this:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/151985309073
FFC FPC 30-pin 0.5mm Pitch Ribbon Cable line ZIF HDD+Adaptor extend connector

totally works. worth the $4.

now, as you can see, that comes with the extending adapter, which you already have. so...
i also bought this:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/311530317516
20Pcs 0.5mm Pitch 6 Pin AWM 80C 60V VW-1 Flexible Flat Cable FFC FPC 200mm

yeah, that's 20 of them. but i couldnt find less than that for any better price. getting just 1 was the same price as 20.
and i used the extending adapter from the other purchase to connect it

and now both cables for my lcd are really long and easy to work with.

How have you connected your touchpanel cable with the 30-pin-adapter?
Just on the same ports on each side?

The cables should be inserted with the contact pads 'towards' the board or connector.

Alright, sound easy.
Thanks marcushh777.

This cable should also match the conditions for touchpanel, right?

It's more expensive as the given product here in the topic, but I can't order the other cable for addresses in Germany or Austria :/

and yes that cable you linked looks fine to me. i took a gamble but it works.
look for a multi-pack. you might actually find one cheaper. as mentioned, i could only find singles for more than it cost me for a 20-pack.
