Questions & Answers

Laurie B : I want a reliable connector so that I can put music from my I pad on usb drive. Is this the right tool for that ?
NEIL C : can i use this cord on my canon mark 2 and mark 3?BEN M : Yes it will work both in USB 2 and USB 3 but you need the cable to camera to make this work. You can buy a small usb 3 and plug directly into camera with that.ANDREW R : This cable is an extension cable would not plug directly into any camera.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?HARRY P : These are the best!ryan z : Kind of a design flaw that the shoulder strap often pops it off the camera. Still usable without it but I post mine. Probably take it off for hiking now.MIKE L : Very reliable connection and everyone on set is used to watch out for the orange cable. I keep renting it as a backup cable for studio shoots, it was time to get my own.TONYA B : want to try it.NICHOLAS T : 20200115. We're buying this cable because it'd allow us to use a faster extension cable for USB 3 and USB-C (with adapter (female USB-C to male USB 3)) since we shoot more still-life and slower portrait, not fast fashion where a "straight" USB-C would be the most useful.MICHAEL G : This is a very capable cable. It's tough and does exactly what it says it does.JOHN G : needed an extra

Orange the new black cord

I have used tether tool cords before in the past and they are bright orange which makes it less likely to trip over like I did with my old black cords and they are reliable

Tether tools. Active extension cable.

I had wanted this for a while. It’s expensive compared to other cords. I found that it is the same cord as the OVC CORD sold by Micro center for $ less. I returned this one and bought the other one. But it is a very nice cord.

I would buy this again if i have to.

I shoot lots of new born photography. This is perfect way of shooting tethered as my client can see the image on computer screen as the photo is being taken. This tool gives me a lot of flexibility to move around and shoot in different angles. It came with easy directions. Really easy to set up. I have Lightroom 5. You can also watch videos on how to set set up on Adorama TV.

Nice high quality cable

The Tether Tools TetherPro 16ft USB 3.0 SuperSpeed Active Extension Cable (Hi-Visibility Orange) offers fast and reliable transfer of images and data. The TetherPro Premium SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Extension Cable is an active extension device that allows for longer tethering distances without worrying about signal errors or corrupt data transfers. Up to four active USB extensions and one passive 15' (4.57 m) USB can be daisy-chained together for a total of 80' (24.38 m), thus avoiding any drop-off in signals.

With the TetherPro USB 3.0 Extension 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. The set-up is simple, you just need to plug the male end of the Active Extension Cable into your computer and then plug your camera or other device's USB cable into the female end of this Extension Cable so the repeater is closest to the device and not the computer. For longer distances, you can simply insert additional Active Extension increments into the chain to achieve the needed distance.
