for "normal sim" the most frequent I use is with the cable on the short cornered side

---- | |--- ---/

but the reverse one is the second most frequent

I have 2 old phones which use the longer side for the cable

but have never used the reverse one.

for micro-sim, I have only seen 2 versions used (cable on the shorter sides)

Excerpts from Harald Welte's message of 2013-05-02 13:17:23 -0700:

Hi all,

as we are getting more and more inquiries for micro-SIM (3FF) FPC adapters for the SIMtrace, I would like to inquire on this list before we go into productin.

My main inquiry is about the orientation. As you know, the current mini-SIM adapters come in four flavors, one for each of the possible orientations. Hoewever, as there are still few phones with 3FF SIM card support, I was hoping we don't need to produce 3FF FPC adapter cables for all four orientations.

Does anyone on this list know which orientations exist and which don't? This would help us to proceed quickly with manufacturing the adapters, without spending extensive amounts of time researching on required orientations.

Regards, Harald
