Digital camera reviews of Tripp Lite U022-010 USB2.0 Certified Gold A/B Device Cable - 10ft
Digital camera Review: Highly Recommended!
Summary: 5 Stars
I didn't have any problems with this USB cable. The speed is great and the golden element adds to a very positive impression. :-)Digital camera Review: If you searched for "Micro USB" THIS IS NOT IT
Summary: 4 Stars
For some reason this cable shows up when one searches Amazon for "micro USB" -- and from the angle the product shot was taken you can't see that the device-end of the cable is a big fat "printer type" USB connection. In the photo it looks flat and similar to other illustrations of micro USB cables. But it's not.
I wasn't familiar enough with the USB connector designations to be suspicious. I've now learned that ALL sizes of USB device connectors (i.e. the end that you DON'T plug into your computer) are called "B", and you have to pay close attention to whether it's a plain "B" (like this cable, for printers, scanners, etc.), a "mini B" (and there may actually be two sizes of mini), or a "micro B" (what I needed for my cell phone).
Live and learn. For less than five bucks each I'm not going to bother returning these -- they're perfectly good USB A/B cables, and you never know when you'll need an extra one, or a longer one. (At 10 feet these are longer than most -- handy for placing a printer a bit further away from your PC.) And when you suddenly realize you need one, you DON'T want to pay retail store prices for any cable!
Country-of-origin note: made in China. (What did you expect?)
Digital camera Review: It Works...for 20 dollars less than the same thing from the store
Summary: 5 Stars
This hooked one device to another, just as it is supposed to. It cost 20 dollars less than the same thing from a brick and mortar store. What else do you need to know?Digital camera Review: It works like it should
Summary: 5 Stars
everything it says it does, it does. Apparently, it comes with a lifetime warranty, I hope I don't need it. (have had the cable for 6 months)Digital camera Review: Its a cable--it works
Summary: 5 Stars
Ordered through Amazon, and it arrived the day before the printer arrived. I plugged it into the printer the next day, and VOILA! Everything was a go!
It sure beats paying $25-$30 at the local retail stores. It's a cable, and I have found cables either work or they don't work. The one I received works.
