Icom 8900017990 — OEM Flexible Flat Cable for IC-F5400D / IC-F6400D Series
The Icom 8900017990 is a genuine OEM flexible flat cable (FFC) — also known as a ribbon cable or flex cable — designed as an internal replacement component for the Icom IC-F5400D and IC-F6400D series IDAS™ digital mobile transceivers. This is an authorized Icom service part, sourced directly from Icom's supply chain for technician-level repair and maintenance.
The cable is manufactured to UL AWM Style 20624 specifications, rated for 80°C operating temperature and 60 volts, with a VW-1 flame resistance rating. Blue reinforcement tabs on both ends protect the contact area and ensure proper seating in the radio's ZIF (zero insertion force) or LIF connectors during installation.
