Right angle USB Mini

[N9JIG]

I have been using these right-angle (down facing) USB-Micro ribbon cables for my SDS200's and they do the job perfectly fine. I like the ribbon cable as it fits in between the radio and faceplate.

I am now looking for similar cables for my USB-Mini scanners like the BCD260DN, 996P2 or 536HP. I have searched Amazon and there are dozens of Micro equipped cables but I cannot find them with Mini's.

Anyone else find a source to Mini right-angle ribbon cables?

They're kinda pricey. $15.00 for a charge-only cable is pretty steep.

It is NOT charge only, I use it for both virtual control and programming without issues.

I'm sure you're right but here's what Amazon says about it:

• length:15cm, Flat soft ribbon micro USB cable 90 degree charging cable . Flat thin flexible. light weight low profile

Regardless, it works. I just need one with a Mini plug as well.

Rich, I use the exact same cable for my SDS200. As you may know, the connectors are removable.

Here is an AliExpress listing for the various connectors,

B1 through B6 are microUSB

I thought we settled it already.

Yes, this might be my solution. I am not a big fan of AliExpress but might take a chance with them.

Thanks!

I mistyped. Those are miniUSB as you wanted.

I have ordered many many things from AliExpress and have never had an issue.
