Digital camera reviews of Tripp Lite U042-036 USB2.0 A/B Repeater Cable - 36ft

Digital camera Review: A one way cable
Summary: 2 Stars

I bought this cable to connect the Bluetooth dongle for the TiVo Slide Remote Control to the TiVo, which was moved to a closet when we remodeled our bedroom. My plan was to have the USB cable go behind the wall and come out by the TV; I would then connect the dongle so the remote would be able to control the TV.

Initially it appeared everything was working - the blue light on the dongle was lit and it blinked in response to button presses on the remote. The TiVo, however, was not receiving the signal from the remote. I guess the unpowered dongle couldn't send a strong enough signal to reach the TiVo.

As a stopgap measure I used a 6 foot long USB extension cable to bring the dongle out of the closet and into the room. The remote was able to control the TiVo but the response was very laggy and the TiVo didn't always receive the command. It was very annoying...when fast-forwarding or rewinding we could never return to normal speed when we wanted, so we'd miss the mark and have to go the other way.

In the end the solution was to install a powered USB extender, the Cables Unlimited USB-1375 USB Over Cat5e Extender with Power Supply. That worked brilliantly, no lag at all.

As for this cable, I'm sure it would work fine for a printer or a powered device, but for an unpowered device that needs to send data back this isn't the solution. The Tripp Lite website doesn't indicate what works best with this cable so if you get it, be smarter than me and save the packaging. That way if it doesn't work you can get a refund.
