Qwiic cables (4-pin JST) plug easily from development boards to sensors, shields, accessory boards and more, making easy work of setting up a new prototype.

There's no need to worry about accidentally swapping the `SDA` and `SCL` wires on your breadboard. The Qwiic connector is polarized so you know you’ll have it wired correctly every time.
462+
463+
The part numbers for the PCB connector is `SM04B-SRSS` ([Datasheet](https://cdn.sparkfun.com/assets/parts/1/2/2/8/9/Qwiic_Connector_Datasheet.pdf)) and the mating connector on the cables is `SHR04V-S-B`; or an equivalent *1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connection*.

=== "Daisy Chain-able"

It’s time to leverage the power of the I^2^C bus! Most Qwiic boards will have two or more connectors on them, allowing multiple devices to be connected.
