These connectors are on ribbon type cables and on the board itself. The other end of the ribbon cable is bare, I'm wondering what the best way to build some type of breakout board for these would be. Can you identify the connector and possibly point me in the direction of a good way to break these out?
Please see attached.
Just ask them.

Just ask them.
Tried that, thanks though.
There are zillions of different connectors, and I don't recognise that one.....
Since you've got the board, why not ask the suppliers?

Solder (and lead out) an alternative connector scheme from the back.
Just looks like a 26 pin ribbon header to me.

They use ribbon cable, yes.
They (pins / contacts) aren't arranged in a straight grid pattern, though. They're staggered.
Could be made to take flat terminals or just the plain wire of ribbon cable.
Still not sure what it is you have and are trying to do. Do you have the device and/or the cable? What are you trying to 'breakout'?
What is the pic you are showing, or what do you think it is?
It could even just be that we're staring at the back half of a connector that plain ribbon cable goes into. And the part shown comes off the board with a plain pin arrangement. I.e., what you're trying to figure out a name for is irrelevant, it's just one style of two halves that bare ribbon cable goes into to make a terminal.

Here is the cable: http://www.simdisplay.net/SIMR-F1-Colored-Cable-Set
I have the cable, and the device. The end of the ribbon cable opposite the connector, is just raw ribbon cable with no connector or anything on it. I am trying to find the proper way to connect the ribbon to a perf board or something so I can more easily and cleanly integrate the board with an arduino. It says the pitch of the ribbon cable is 1.27mm, if that helps.
I appreciate the help, thanks.
So what you're saying is the pic you've shown has absolutely nothing to do with your goal.
Your goal is just to connect ribbon cable to a PCB that ISN'T the PCB that is shown?
Any pcb ribbon socket and connector will work.
There's no reason to specifically match the pic you showed if you're concerned with the bare end of the ribbon cable. That's also probably why it's bare, because you can choose whatever terminal you want.
Could even slap one of these types on there if you want it to match for whatever reason.

Ok, thanks for your time. I'll see what I can find.
Those are some really crappy photos.
One would have to have the same device and have a look at it to see what is on there.
Next time you would better make some clear and focused photos yourself and put those in the thread.
Because those pics you probably grabbed from some manual are worthless.
Those connectors make me think of TE Micro-MaTch connectors.
But you'd be better off with the already mentioned connectors, generally known as headers (because of the solder pin arrangement which is better suitable for your goal).
