Tether Tools USB-A Male to USB-A Female 2.0 Overview

The 16', orange TetherPro USB 2.0 Active Extension Cable from Tether Tools allows longer tethering distances without worrying about signal errors or corrupt data transfers. With this cable, signals and data transfers going in and out of the cable are buffered to ensure consistent signal quality, meeting USB's highest electrical and timing specifications.

Passive cables over 16' (4.88 m) in length, for the purpose of data transmission, may result in signal errors or noise and are not recommended. Up to four active USB extensions and one passive 15' (4.57 m) USB can be daisy chained before any drop-off in signal or quality is detected.

The set-up is simple, just plug the male end of the cable into the computer and then plug your camera or other device's USB cable into the female end of this cable so the repeater is closest to the device and not the computer.
Drop-off in signals can be avoided by daisy chaining up to four active USB extensions and one passive 15' (4.57 m) USB together.
Signals and data transfers going in and out of the cable are buffered to ensure consistent signal quality, meeting USB's highest electrical and timing specifications.

question

Can a cable of this length power devices that work off of bus power? For example, could I use it to connect a keyboard or mouse to a computer?
Asked by: Anonymous
A cable of this length will be just fine as long as it's an active extension cable. This cable in particular will be able to support a mouse, keyboard, and even portable hard drives.

question

I bought this a few months ago. unfortunately did not have to use it until now. When I plug it in to the computer , the software does not recognize the camera. it doesn't know the camera was just plugged in. However, if I use only the USB cord that came with the camera it works. What is going on ? I have a Canon 5D-MII and using Canon software that came with the camera to tether.
Asked by: Luis
I use this cord with a nikon D610 and if it is detached during capture I will have turn off the camera and the capture software plug the cord back in the start the Nikon capture software then turn on the camera after the program is up. you could try testing the cord on another camera.

question

When looking at the 32 ft extension, it shows two chords in the photo. I don't want to assume anything, so is the 32ft basically two 16ft extensions or is it one long 32ft chord?
Asked by: Brian B.
Hi it's two 16ft
