Xbee Regulated explorer connection question

Wireless & IoT

Hello,

What’s the best way to make connections the Sparkfun Xbee regulated explorer? The connection holes on the board (Din, Dout, GND, 5v) are slightly larger than my standard breadboard jumper wires? I did consider soldering a female 6-pin header to the explorer and then using using jumper wires to make the connections. Is that the best way? Thanks.

How about soldering a male header and plugging it right in your breadboard?

Thanks. That makes more sense than doing it the other way.
