The Starter Tethering Kit from Tether Tools gives you all the essential gear needed to create a secure data connection between your camera and computer for a tethered workflow. This kit comes with a orange USB 2.0 cable that is equipped with a Type-A male connector on one end and a USB mini-B 5-pin male connector on the other side, making it compatible with digital cameras. This USB 2.0 cable is 15′ long and transmits data at a rate of up to 480 Mb/s.
Tether Tools includes two JerkStoppers that remove the strain placed on the computer and camera’s ports from the connecting cable and help ensure the cable stays connected. For preventing tangles, ten ProTab cable ties keep the power, video, and other types of cables well managed and organized. In addition, this kit provides a Tether Tools organization case, so you can store the included cable, cable retention devices, and cable ties.
Please note that only the USB cable is covered by a limited 90-day warranty that does not guard against wear and tear.

The black tether cable is fantastic. I originally purchased the orange color but was faulty. I sent it back and I got another orange what was faulty again. I contacted customer service and I asked them to send me a black. Customer service is just amazing with this company. They sent me the black cable next day shipping for free after all my trouble with the 2 orange cable. the black is works like a charm with my nikon d750.

I use this cord as a Tether between my MacBook Pro and my Nikon D5200. The bright color helps keep me from tripping over it all the time. It is also long enough to not have to have a stand close to the camera – which is more expensive than I can justify at the current time.

The cable that shipped with the Canon 1D X was far too short to be useful. This cable is very sturdy and the orange color is very visible and prevents tripping even in low lit environments. It is also less expensive than the Canon replacement of equivalent length.

The tether Pro cable has proven to be everything I wanted. I will purchase the female cable adapter in order to increase the length…although I could make it without the addition. The cable is wonderful!

This cable is for my New Nikon D750, which is different from my other old nikon cameras. The one nikon provided from the box is way too short for tether shooting. Tried using other cable from cheaper brand. The signal keeps dropping. Not good for shoot. frustrating.. Tried the cable. so far no dropping of signal. Love the orange colour. easier to spot. Preventing from tripping over. Well, only if the price can be cheaper will be nice…

Dependable incredibly long cable. It’s well made and always does the job. You only have to buy it once – Get the 15′ for sure!

This is worth it. Really fast really reliable. No more camera connection dropping out in Lightroom because I am using old cables. ~TEU

Bought to use when photographing Portraits and Portfolio work so that I can see the images on my laptop in a bigger size during the shoot. I have only so far tested it by connecting and taking a few test shots but it worked fine.

i use an external wifi card from alfa industries to connect, this is the cable i use and i must say wifi capabilities are great no matter what length the cable is … if you use a cheap cable then shortest will prevent loss of wifi but that means using a 3 inch cable … but not with tetherpro no matter how long it is wifi will BE 100% …

Extends the reach and fits my Nikon D7100 perfectly. B&H researched to locate the right tether for my camera. Thanks you.

This gets the job done and works perfectly! I would recommend getting the extension with this because it can be a little short at times espectially when being creative and trying different angles. It is always better to have more then less. That is my only problem and that is the reason I gave it a 4 start. This product is great and you will not regret buying it but you might find yourself ordering and waiting for the extension to arrive. Also the jerkstopper is a must! I have stepped on the cord (because it was too short) many times and it has either been yanked out of the camera or my computer which I would rather not be damaged. I use this to shoot portraits and merchanise and this tether cord has made my life so much easier. It is worth every penny and you will not be disappointed. I shoot with a D600+D5100 and this tether cord fits both perfectly and functions beautifully. Highly recommend with additions

Well, it is a cable that gets the job done and that is what matters. The cable itself, to my surprise, was much more flexible that I had expected and yet sturdy enough for it to deal with constant use.

In my home studio, as a beginner, I’m feeling like a pro as tethering to my IMac. It is awesome.

I bought this cable to shoot tether with my Nikon D600 and my laptop. I think the price is too much for just a cable, but works perfect.
