I would like to know if I can use a longer usb cable with this item. I bought 2 of these but would like to use a 15 foot usb cable on these?

Hello, Yes it would work with a longer USB cable, as long as you don't go over 25ft.

From what I've read, the length limit on USB 3 is about 3 meters. Possibly a special 15' cable would work, I don't know. My cables on these are 6' and work fine.

USB 3.0 is a 3 meter spec. Actually a step down from USB 2.0 which was 5 meters. Your milage may vary though. Quality cables should do the trick. I have had good and bad luck with long runs on USB 3.0. As long as you don't need to power the device, I'm thinking it would work. But I'd have to test it and mines mounted already. Best wishes.

Is it just me or are people answering this question without making the measurement?? The 2 USB cables are 4 feet in length, NOT 3 feet!!! And - the cables are not 'approximately 4 feet'. They ARE 4 feet. Also - a 3rd cable that has a switch button on it is 6 feet long.

A usb Extension cable is compatible with the cable provided. You may also find longer cables the interfaces are standard ends not proprietary.

Use the shortest USB extension cable that you have. A 3 foot one should not lose too much power.

USB Cable length is 182cm (6 foot). I cannot help with the max cable length. it is possible to run USB devices over long cable length runs using repeater cables but this may introduce unwanted noise in the captured vision.

You need a USB a to mini b 5-pin cable.AmazonBasics USB 2.0 Cable - A-Male to Mini-B - 6 Feet (1.8 Meters)<edit> added link to cable </edit>

i have my receiver plugged into a usb extension cable and it works fine. the cable is around 5 feet, but i imagine it could be longer...

I'm having trouble finding a replacement cable, let alone a longer one (maybe proprietary). If you really want to extend the length you have a couple options: 1. use the mini xlr adapter end and get another mini xlr cable to extend it (you'll also probably need an adapter to connect the mini xlr into... anything else), or 2. use the device as intended - connected to a belt pack wireless transmitter. Also, keep in mind this is a condenser mic and requires its own power (provided by the belt pack transmitter or phantom power via XLR). If you try to use it as a simple computer, or dynamic, mic, it will not work.

If you hook the the additional USB to a power source, I don't see why it wouldn't work. Just make sure the additional power only cable is the one you hook to power only.

I use a HDMI to USB port on mine computer. It's about 30 ft long. My son ordered mine, but I know it was purchased on Amazon. I don't know from who.

USB length is limited but only now for less then a week, but I am for the full speed characteristics of the connection. This application is not using but only a portion of the full speed the USB cable is rated for, therefore the lengthof the cable is not an issue. I have been using one in an RV and I am throughly impressed with the capability it is showing me.

This is probably best answered by going directly to the manufacturer. If I had to guess, it probably would. I just did a small experiment using a much shorter male/female USB cable and it "appears" to work just fine. BUT... I'm simply an un-techie consumer. I know that cable length can affect some communications, so seeking a direct answer from the manufacturer is probably your best best.

There is a whole lot of variance in this answer. I'd like to know as well, since I'm looking for a longer cable.

I measured my USB cable at 40". If necessary, a longer cable could be used as long as it is a BlackBerry charge cable.

Yes, this can extend USB-A type of cable. But it recommends USB cable should be 9.8 feet or shorter. Personally, I have many bad experiences when USB cables are longer than 6 feet (including this Amazon 9.8 feet cable.) You should consider a shorter extension if you could.

I purchased mutilple cables as I need to go a 17 foot distance. They connect together using the supplied 4 pin connectors that come with the cable. I didn't find any cables longer than 15 foot that is why I purchased 2. So yes these will work for you hope this helps.
