Cable thickness and mating cycle budget
The F31S-1A7L1-11040: The actuator accepts FFC or FPC thicknesses of 0.30 mm and 0.33 mm — match the cable thickness to the actuator spec; a flipped flex shorts the wrong row because the contacts are vertical 1-sided. Rated for 30 mating cycles, the gold-over-phosphor bronze contacts handle repeated reconnections in field-service or test-fixture duty.
