## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=POLOLU-4764:1` (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-4764:1.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)

## Description

This cable is designed to work with Pololu's Micro Metal Gearmotor Encoders [with top-entry connector](https://core-electronics.com.au/magnetic-encoder-pair-kit-with-top-entry-connector-for-micro-metal-gearmotors-12-cpr-2-7-18v.html) and [with side-entry connector](https://core-electronics.com.au/magnetic-encoder-pair-kit-with-side-entry-connector-for-micro-metal-gearmotors-12-cpr-2-7-18v.html). It consists of six 28 AWG color-coded wires that are terminated on one end by a female JST SH-type connector.

The other ends of the wires are unterminated and can be cut to match the length of your application. You can use Pololu's [male](https://core-electronics.com.au/male-crimp-pins-for-0-1-housings-100-pack.html) or [female](https://core-electronics.com.au/female-crimp-pins-for-0-1-housings-100-pack.html) crimp pins and [crimp connector housings](https://core-electronics.com.au/connectors-sockets/crimp-connector-housings.html) to make a connector for the unterminated end of the cable that is compatible with standard [solderless breadboards](https://core-electronics.com.au/prototyping/breadboards.html), perfboards, [0.1" male headers](https://core-electronics.com.au/connectors-sockets/headers.html), and [0.1" female headers](https://core-electronics.com.au/connectors-sockets/headers/female-straight.html).

This cable also works with Pololu's JST SH-style connector breakout board (available in [top-entry](https://core-electronics.com.au/breakout-for-jst-sh-style-connector-6-pin-male-top-entry-individually-packaged.html) and [side-entry](https://core-electronics.com.au/breakout-for-jst-sh-style-connector-6-pin-male-side-entry-individually-packaged.html) versions):
