JST’s PHR-2 is one of the most popular and ubiquitous connectors in use today. Valued in small electronics by both industries and hobbyists/makers, the device is simple and omnipresent. Customers frequently come to us asking for a prebuilt cable assembly utilizing this device to simplify their own builds and avoid the cost of crimp tooling; can these cables be had?
Unfortunately, JST does not and generally will not manufacture entire cable assemblies; the PHR-2 is not available in prebuilt cable form. What JST does offer are pre-crimped jumper cable assemblies for the PH series of connectors, which you can find here: JST PH-Series Pre-Crimped Jumpers. Available in a variety of lengths ranging from two to twelve inches, these pre-crimped jumpers can be used in any PH-series housing to create your own cable assemblies without need of crimp tooling. While JST does not offer insertion tooling for the PH series, you can generally insert the jumpers by hand, or via small tweezers or needle-nose pliers.
