colores con raya

Explanation:
No se especifica si es un enchufe eléctrico o de datos (e.g. para ordenador/computadora).

De todas formas, tanto strip como stripe significa la raya helicoidal que llevan algunos cables para diferenciarlos de otros. En enchufes eléctricos, el neutro suele ser verde con raya amarilla. En cables de datos, los pares se diferencian por una raya; e.g. azul sólido emparejado con azul y raya blanca.

colores de la banda

Explanation:
En cables de comunicación, hay, por lo general, 4 pares de alambres.

Cada uno de estos pares tiene un color particular y cada uno de los alambres del par se puede diferenciar por lo que uno es "sólido" y el otro es sólo una banda del mismo color sobre un fondo blanco.

stripe colors colores intercalados

Explanation:
Based on the context, it seems to me that it should be 'stripe colors'. In that case, I'd use 'colores intercalados' in order to keep the word 'colors'.

stripe colors bandas de colores

Explanation:
Si se refiere a los cables, los dos tipos pueden ser "un solo color/color liso" o con "colores en bandas/bandas de colores" ("stripes" y no "strips", como se muestra en http://netsolonline.net/Terminations.htm). For ejemplo:

"The 3-pair UTP wire at your workstation has six wires—three in solid colors and three in stripes." (http://www.constructionzones.com/TelecommTechCurrSample.pdf)

Si se refiere algún tipo de terminación decorativa (una banda de color o "strip" y no "stripe"), sería simplemente "banda de color".

También ten en cuenta que "to strip" significa pelar el cable, es decir, quitar la aislación.

Atentamente,

Daniel
