Filco cables compatibility

[manna]

Anyone know if Filco cables work on Wasd CODE keyboards?

Why wouldn't they? USB cables are USB cables. The cables that come with the CODE are fairly thick. At worst you'll have a cable that is too thin for the built in cable guides. The CODE has pretty generous clearance for large USB connector heads and you can always trim/dremel it down if needed.

Filcos use a captive cable with a JST connector at the keyboard end, while CODE uses a standard Micro USB cable.
So, not compatible!

I stand corrected. Yes, a quick Google Image Search reveals that Filcos use JST as you say:



CODE definitely uses micro USB. Not the same thing.

Sorry, i should have explained that i want to plug it directly to the pcb.

Here i found some pictures of a disassembled one.
The connector looks the same, can any of you confirm?

That's almost exactly what my WASD v2 looks like.

The connector is the same, and the pinout is the same. In all probability a direct swap.

This means that i can connect the cable directly to the pcb, and get rid of that little board that hold only the micro usb connector right?
