USB 3.0 Extender Cable

blackwatch42nd

Recently purchased a ASI071 Pro and need a longer cable to reach the pier in the observatory. Has anyone tried this cable: Tripp Lite U328-036, 36' USB 3.0 Active Extender Cable?

Or any others for that matter. It cost a few bucks but I don't mind paying if it works.

Thanx

36 feet??

I have only tried it for two nights but this 5 meter (= 16.4 feet) cable seems to work with my 1600MM Cool:
