15 ft USB 3.0 Tether Cable
This 15 ft USB 3.0 Male A to Micro-B cable connects cameras with micro USB ports to computers for high-speed data transfer. It serves photographers and videographers who need reliable tethered shooting in studio or location environments. The hi-visibility orange jacket makes the cable easy to spot in busy workspaces.
Shielded Build and Micro-B Connector
Fully shielded construction protects against external signal interference to reduce transmission errors and filter out signal noise. The sturdy cable assembly is designed to meet USB specifications for dependable performance during extended sessions. The Micro-B 5-pin connector fits devices equipped with that specific port type.
15 ft Passive Length Limit
Passive USB 3.0 cables have a practical length ceiling around 15 ft before signal integrity degrades. For tethering distances beyond this cable, a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 active extension is required to preserve signal quality and minimise noise. Buyers needing longer runs without active hardware cannot use this cable alone.

Questions about this item
What data-rate ceiling does the USB 3.0 interface impose on this 15 ft cable?
The USB 3.0 connection supports up to 5 Gbps, so real-world throughput will not exceed that limit.
What physical clearance does the Micro-B 5-pin plug need on the camera side?
The Micro-B 5-pin connector requires a standard micro-USB port opening; verify the camera’s port recess depth before routing the cable.
How is the cable installed for tethered shooting, and what step is often missed?
Connect the Type-A end to the computer, the Micro-B end to the camera, then enable tether mode in the camera menu — the step many forget.
