NEW PRODUCTS – STEMMA QT / Qwiic JST SH 4-Pin Cables – 50mm long / 200mm long / JST SH 4-Pin Cable with Alligator Clips


First up, the 200mm long!

This 4-wire cable is a little over 200mm / 7.8″ long and fitted with JST-SH female 4-pin connectors on both ends. Compared with the chunkier JST-PH these are 1mm pitch instead of 2mm, but still have a nice latching feel, while being easy to insert and remove.

This cable can be used with Qwiic or STEMMA QT boards, to easily connect sensors and drivers from one board to the other. The cables are made symmetrically so don’t worry about which side goes where!

The colors are:

  • Black for GND
  • Red for V+ – For Qwiic boards, 3.3V. For STEMMA QT, 3 to 5V.
  • Blue for SDA
  • Yellow for  SCL

Now for the wee 50mm long!


This 4-wire cable is 50mm / 1.9″ long and fitted with JST SH female 4-pin connectors on both ends. Compared with the chunkier JST PH these are 1mm pitch instead of 2mm, but still have a nice latching feel, while being easy to insert and remove.

This cable can be used with Qwiic or STEMMA QT boards, to easily connect sensors and drivers from one board to the other. The cables are made symmetrically so don’t worry about which side goes where!

We also carry this as a 150mm long cable with either female and male headers.

Last but not least, the JST SH 4-pin Cable with Alligator Clips!


This cable will make it super easy to use our plug-and-play STEMMA QT boards with boards like Circuit Playground. On one end you get a Qwiic / STEMMA QT connector (technically known as a JST SH 4-pin plug)  into 4 individual wires with grippy alligator clips. We’re carrying these to match up with our boards or breakouts with ‘STEMMA QT’ connectors on them.

This cable has a JST SH 4-pin on one side and alligator clips on the other.
