Our stepper motor cable can be shortened if necessary by simply cutting the wires and reinstalling them in the same wire-pin configuration. One end of the cable has a Female 4-pin header, while the other side has a Female 6-pin header. Both of these headers use the same 4 wires, however, but are simply configured differently for safety purposes – so that you can’t plug two stepper motor drivers into each other and cause an explosion.
As a final important note to remember, the wires are designed to connect differently on each side, and you will see that the colour-coding is different on each head. This is intentional and should be noted when installing the cable to ensure correct and safe practices.
Typical Applications for the 4-Wire 6-Pin Stepper Motor Cable:
Our 1 Meter 4-Wire 6-Pin Stepper Motor Cables are designed specifically to connect stepper motors. There are few other practical uses for the cable.

- Name: Stepper Motor Cable XH2.54 Male
- Weight: 14g
