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.

Love the extra length I bought the 6 ft at first but this is much better. My camera is older so I will need a new cable when I get another camera but this is a great cable.

I have had the Tether Table and 15′ Tether cord for almost a month now. Very pleased with the functionality and ease of use! This cord is heavy duty, not flimsy.

The bright orange is great to have in a dark studio. Or even a lit one, for that matter. It helps to not trip over the cord. Solid connections! Good buy!

I got this cable to replace the standard one I had rolling around. It wasn’t cutting it when shooting raw into Lightroom. So I got this cable in hopes it would speed up the file transfer rate and it did it’s job. I’m now able to shoot raw into Lightroom with confidence that it’s not going to slow my shoot down.

I connect my 6d and Mark2 to Lightroom with this tethering cord. Would suggest this to anyone that shoots in studio and so client can live view to make sure colors are correct for apparel.

I used to work in musical instrument & pro audio retail and I hate to pay retail for cables, but I also realize the value of having good cables where data and audio transfer are critical. I bought these cables for all of my camera tethering and for data communication with one of my synthesizers to communicate with my computers. Im very pleased with the construction and performance & I also like the bright orange so these cables stand out from my other data cables.

Very nicely crafted piece of gear. It is a cable and does its job as advertised. It seems like it will stand up to heavy use. How long it will last remains to be seen.

Just what I needed! No complaints, 15′ is perfect for mobility. I use it with my surface pro, boom! click and view.

I didn’t think I needed this, until I realized the number of times I walked around in the studio with my camera tethered and accidentally pulled out the USB cable I used or stepped on it. This item is bright orange so you always see it and can always find it.

It’s a cable and it works. The bright orange color helps keep track of it so it doesn’t get mixed up with other cables, visibility to minimize trip hazard, but works best with two other accessories. To both minimize cable damage at the ends and to keep them from accidentally pulling out of the camera and computer, connecting Tether Tools Jerkstopper at each end is a great idea.

Great that my camera and computer are not constricted to such a small area now and the orange color helps it stand out.
