The orange Tether Tools TetherPro USB 2.0 Type-A to 5-Pin Mini-USB Cable is 1′ long and has gold-plated connectors to provide consistent and reliable conductivity as well as corrosion resistance. The ends of this cable feature a standard USB Type-A male connector and the other side is outfitted with a 5-pin mini-B male plug, which is compatible with most digital cameras.
To deliver data at speeds up to 480 Mb/s, Tether Tools has equipped this cable with USB 2.0 technology. It sports a reinforced Ferrite core that filters out signal noise and reduces transmission errors. In addition, the full-lined shielding feature protects the signal against external interference.

I had a This is Spinal Tap Moment when picking up the cords. Thought the Cord was 20′ instead it was 20. Yeah imagine my surprise today.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Wanted the orange color so people see it while walking around the studio area.

15′ TetherPro cable was exactly what I was looking for to replace other cables with extensions. Easy to see in dark studio.

I was asked to shoot portraits for the university where I teach. As an Adobe Lightroom user I knew the software provides for tethered shooting so I purchased the cable manufactured by Tethered Tools. What a time save – portraits are imported directly into Lightroom for any post processing and cataloging. Reviewing the shot on a laptop is much more efficient than the monitor on my Nikon D3. The length of the cablemis perfect and the color is a constant reminder to watch your step.

The color is great for visibility, length is good size to give easy comfort moving around. Do suggest Jerk Stopper with cable to protect from pulling out of camera.

I use the TetherPro USB 2.0 A Male to Mini-B 5-Pin Gold Plated cable to tether my Nikon D700 to Lightroom both at my studio and on location, and it has yet to loose connection or fail me on the job. It’s bright orange color keeps me, my assistants or clients from tripping over it and causing a big time accident.

This is a great product for connecting both my Canon 5D MK II and 1Dx to my MacBook Air when shooting at client sites. The Tether Tools JerkStopper Camera Support to hold the cable to the camera is critical to keeping it connected when moving around. The orange color provides great visibility for people who are around the shooting area as black cables just seem to disappear from view. Why not 5 stars? I’d like to see the plugs for both the computer USB and the camera mini USB fit a bit more tighter as they both feel that they will come out too easily. The Tether Tools JerkStopper Camera Support & Tether Tools JerkStopper Computer Support should be standard with this 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.

I have used this cable for several portrait shoots so far. At first I was using the USB cable which came with my Nikon D7000, but it was too short (3 feet). I purchased the Tether Tools cable for a longer reach. I gained something else unexpectedly: a more reliable connection. With the Nikon-supplied cable, I often had trouble getting my Macbook Pro + Lightroom combo to recognize that the camera was attached. I’d have to restart Lightroom and/or turn off/on the camera. I thought this was ‘normal’ behavior, until I started using the Tether Tools cable. I get a flawless connection every time with no fiddling. Well worth the money.

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% …

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.

The cable works well with my Nikon D90 tethered to my 2-3 year old MacBook Pro with USB ports. The cable seems to be very well constructed and never had an issue with getting images to the notebook. Found the length to work very well for my small available space. Would recommend to anybody with a similar camera and notebook.

Nice heavy shielded cable. I bought it with the jerk stopper attachments and it works great. Almost got the black but I think this bright orange will help keep people (including me) from getting tangled up in it.
