TetherPro USB 2.0 cable for tethered photography
This 15-foot orange cable connects cameras with a Micro-B 5-pin port to a computer USB 2.0 Type-A port. It supports data transfer rates up to 480 Mb/s for efficient file transfers during shoots. The high-visibility colour reduces tripping hazards in studio environments. It is built for professionals who need reliable tethered shooting workflows.
Gold-plated connectors
Gold-plated connectors resist corrosion to maintain consistent conductivity over time. A reinforced ferrite core filters signal noise and reduces transmission errors. Full shielding protects against external electromagnetic interference. These features work together to keep the connection stable during long sessions.
Simple plug-and-play installation
The cable requires no drivers or software; connect the Type-A end to the computer and the Micro-B end to the camera. The 15-foot (4.57 m) reach suits most studio setups but may be excessive for tight desk spaces. Users should verify their device uses a Micro-B 5-pin port, as newer models often use USB-C or Micro-B 10-pin connectors. Avoid sharp bends near the plugs to preserve the internal shielding.

Questions about this item
Will the gold-plated connectors or the ferrite core need replacement after heavy studio use?
The gold-plated connectors resist corrosion and the ferrite core is built into the cable; neither is a user-replaceable part, so the cable itself would be replaced if performance degrades.
What limits transfer speed during a long tethered shoot?
The USB 2.0 interface caps throughput at 480 Mb/s, so sustained transfers cannot exceed that rate regardless of cable length.
Does the 15-foot orange cable get warm or draw extra power when used all day?
USB 2.0 cables carry only the bus-powered current the connected device requests; the 4.57 m length adds negligible resistance, so heat and power draw stay minimal.
