    Really? Have you ever used the Dupont connectors? They are reliable, 
and inexpensive.

    I've used thousands of them, along with IDC. Only a keyed header and 
a keyed IDC connector will prevent misconnecting a cable. The color 
coded wire that I mentioned makes it easy, since they follow the 
standard color code. Start with black for pin one. Consider it the 
stripe on typical ribbon cable.
