The other ends of the wire are terminated with female pins for 0.1" housing. The wire color scheme matches the Sharp distance sensor pinout: red for power, black for ground, and white for signal. ## Pricing - **Price:** $4.95 (inc GST) — $4.50 AUD, exc GST - **Quantity discounts:** 10+ $4.32 (exc GST) · 25+ $4.18 (exc GST) ## Availability & dispatch - Available with a lead time — expect dispatch between Aug 28 and Aug 31. ## How to buy - **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=POLOLU-1798:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/POLOLU-1798:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description This 12-inch (30-cm) cable has 26 AWG wires and a 3-pin female JST PH-style connector (2 mm pitch) that works with Sharp analog distance sensors that have mating PH connectors, such as the 4-30 cm [GP2Y0A41](https://core-electronics.com.au/sharp-gp2y0a41sk0f-analog-distance-sensor-4-30cm.html), the 10-80 cm [GP2Y0A21](https://core-electronics.com.au/sharp-gp2y0a21yk0f-analog-distance-sensor-10-80cm.html), and the 20-150 cm [GP2Y0A02](https://core-electronics.com.au/sharp-gp2y0a02yk0f-analog-distance-sensor-20-150cm.html). **Note:** This cable is **not** compatible with the [2-15 cm Sharp GP2Y0A51](https://core-electronics.com.au/sharp-gp2y0a51sk0f-analog-distance-sensor-2-15cm.html), which has a JST ZH connector. For a cable that works with that sensor, consider the [3-Pin Female JST ZH-Style Cable](https://core-electronics.com.au/3-pin-female-jst-zh-style-cable-30cm-for-sharp-gp2y0a51-distance-sensors.html). The other ends of the wires are terminated with [female crimp pins](https://core-electronics.com.au/female-crimp-pins-for-0-1-housings-100-pack.html) that are compatible with Pololu's [0.1" crimp connector housings](https://core-electronics.com.au/connectors-sockets/crimp-connector-housings.html). The wire color scheme matches the Sharp distance sensor pinout: red for power, black for ground, and white for signal. | \| [![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/0J1465_47741e7799.jpg)](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/0J1465_12505eaa714.jpg) \| \|---\| | \| [![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/0J1466_6630f26cd9.jpg)](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/0J1466_1180487ab3d.jpg) \| \|---\|---\| | \| [![](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/0J2541_472292caed.jpg)](https://core-electronics.com.au/attachments/localcontent/0J2541_610743a22fa.jpg) \| \|---\|---\| | |---| You can use Pololu's [0.1" 3×1 crimp connector housing](https://core-electronics.com.au/0-1-2-54mm-crimp-connector-housing-1x3-pin-25-pack.html) to make a connector that is compatible with the standard [0.1" male headers](https://core-electronics.com.au/0-100-2-54-mm-breakaway-male-header-1x40-pin-straight.html) included with many electronics boards.
