Max USB cable length for LT1421

Does anyone know how long the USB cable can be for connecting the LT1421 flat panel to the computer?
The screen is delivered with 1,8m but I must place the panel in a least 6 meter distance from the computer, is that possible?
I know that the max length for USB 2 is about 5 meters, but it varies between products how sensitive they are to cable length.

3 meters for USB1 and 5 meters for USB 2. You can find lots of information on the subject with a quick search. Try http://www.usb.org/about/faq/ans5 for starters. It explains how to get up to 25 meters of USB cable when you use several USB hubs.

Maximum cable lengths for USB / FW / DVI & sVGA?

I've hunted around on the net and can't find any kind of definitive answer regarding maximum cable lengths for USB, Firewire 400/800 and DVI / sVGA monitors. Can anyone shed some light?
I'm about to shift my studio into a new room, and have the oppourtunity to stick my G5 and external drives into a corridor cupboard adjacent to where my studio is - in other words, noise free bliss! But....
...if I map out how far my computer monitors, keyboard and audio interface will be from the cupboard, and take into account the twists and turns involved in neat routing, I'm looking at a distance of about 10 meters. I need to know if any of these devices will be OK with such a long run of cable, and if not, if it's possible to achieve a good result using hubs or repeaters?
So, can anyone help me out with info on:
an Apogee Ensemble (Firewire 400)
an Apple keyboard (USB 2.0)
an LCD flatscreen (DVI)
and another LCD flatscreen (sVGA)
Many thanks!

I was just researching the very same thing, though it does not sound like my studio setup will be as sweet as yours. Here are a few things I ran across:
FIREWIRE-
"The maximum cable length specified by the IEEE1394 standard is 4.5 meters. However, more recent tests have shown that certain high quality firewire cables can achieve longer lengths without significantly affecting transmission quality. Several manufacturers sell firewire cables longer than 5 meters (some up to 50 meters)."

I found an example of a company who claims to sell a firewire cable of that length:

USB-
There is forum discussion on the topic I was reading yesterday:
http://www.everythingusb.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=804
But don't go past the 11th post or so, they go off on another subject... the use of hubs & the words "active extension" in that post caught my eye. A quick google search came up with this site:
http://www.everythingusb.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=804
There were a bunch sites with devices claiming to do this.
Finally I have this chart, which seems to support what what the articles say, without of course any other extension technology/solutions:
http://www.extron.com/company/article.aspx?id=dedigform10
I'm not making any claims at all about how true these sources are, I just have the same questions and decided to toss what I've been looking at into the discussion. Feel free anyone to jump in and tell me its all wrong - I'd love to hear whats right.

iPod Shuffle 1st generation (grey buttons equipped
with latest software) USB Does Not Work:
-When charging with the Adapter, iPod does not
charge. No light comes on.
-When charging with Computer, iPod does not charge.
No light comes on. iPod used to charge to the
computer. Computer has the System Requirements for
the iPod.
-When iPod is put in the Computer, no light comes on,
the iPod is not recognized. iPod used to work with
the computer. Computer has the System Requirements
for the iPod.
-The USB in the iPod looks perfectly fine. Identical
to a different iPod Shuffle 1st generation.
-iPod never broke or had damage problems. The USB
just stopped working.
-The Battery of the iPod still works and the iPod
still lets me play music, but since I cannot charge
it, the battery will eventually not work.
-iPod was purchased in November, 2005. (last year).
What is wrong with my iPod? Thankyou for your time.
It's defective... return it for a replacement at the point of original purchase, an Apple Store, or ask for replacement on line http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

Thank you very much for your valuable and prompt help.

Hi,
thanks for that. I've seen a document on the VWIC-MFT-E1 that states the max cable length is approx 600m.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps274/products_tech_note09186a00800b6e0f.shtml
Where did you get the 200m from? do you have a reference doc you could point me at?

USB Cable Length Question

I would like to use a USB cable to connect my computer to my wife's laser printer that is 16 feet away. The USB cable will be connected to a powered hub. Will a USB cable work at this distance? I have not seen one this long in stores but will search for one on the internet if 4 members think it will work. I would be using USB 1.1.

Sorry for making this more complicated, but I just took out my tape measure to measure the actual distance of usb cable I'll need.
Just to get to the switchbox I'll need an almost 13 foot usb cable (really like 12 and 1/2 feet). So I'm assuming I'll need a 15 foot usb cable to get to the switchbox. At that point, any short cable attached from the switchbox to the printer will still exceed the 15 foot limit since I'm assuming one must add the length of the longer cable [15 ft] and smaller cable from switchbox [say 2 or 3 ft].
The solution I'm thinking of that might work is to get a powered switchbox. Wouldn't a powered switchbox then revitalize the usb signal and even allow another cable [up to 15 feet] to be attached even though I'll only need a much shorter cable to get from the switchbox to the printer. I don't think the switchbox you linked me to is powered. If you, or others, think a powered switchbox would then allow more cable then please say so and if you can link me to a powered switchbox.
In my thinking, a powered switchbox is much like adding a powered usb hub to the end of a 15 foot cable and then would allow one to go another 15 feet. Theoretically thinking, with many powered hubs or powered switchboxes one could really take the cable out an extremely long distance (if not infinity) - ?

Zen Xtra: USB Cable length

Does anyone know what the cable length is? Because just recently, a friend of mine bought me one, and I needed to get a PCI to USB card because my PC only supported USB .. But, I want the cable to reach up to the top of my tower at least.
Thanks.

I would measure mine, but since it's all tangled into the spaghetti of wires by my computer, i'll take a guess and say it's about 6 feet. Length enough to go from my computer up to my desk with cord to spare.

USB Cable replacement for ZEN touch (40

Any USB A to mini B cable should work. IF you have a digital camera, you may already have one.

Minimum Fiber Patch Cable Length for MGBSX1

I want to "stack" a couple 300 series gigabit switches with fiber using a pair of MGBSX1 GBICs and a single LC to LC patch cable.
Is there a minimum supported patch cable length in this configuration?

Howard,
Thank you for posting. You should have no issues using a short fiber patch between the switches. Just make sure the fiber doesn't bend too sharply and get damaged.

USB cable required for Canon IP4200??

Hi
I may be having a bad day or maybe I'm just dumb but anyway.... I just bought a Canon IP4200 printer and installed teh driver. Now it doesn't come with a USB cable so looking at the USB port on the printer it looked like the ones on my iBook, so I bought a A male to A male cable. Then I plugged both ends in to connect the 2, however as you've probably guessed it doesn't recognise the printer.
A quick online check reveals that I seem to need an A male to B male cable. However when I see the picture of this, the B male connector is a different, smaller shape and I cannot figure out where that would fit into if I bought it. The A male connector I am fine with as that looks like it can go into either the iBook or the printer but the B male I have no idea! Can anyone advise on what I am doing wrong or am I just mad???
Thanks

There was, before you posted a reply (the second comment, the question on how to delet the post). Now your post has received an answer, it can no be deleted. Sorry

Can I detect USB cable unplugged for USB 6229

I am using a USB 6229 to control a moving machine. As a safety mechanism, I would like to be able to detect if the USB cable becomes unplugged and stop the machine.
I thought maybe I could use the Watchdog functions in DAQmx to achieve this, but I get an error which says that watchdogs are not supported on the 6229. Does anyone know if there is a way to detect the USB cable is unplugged on the 'machine' side of the 6229, please? I could build my own watchdog timer and control it using digital I/O lines, but I wondered if I was missing something obvious?
Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,
I don't believe you'll be able to do set this up with your USB 6229. There aren't any safety features like watchdog timers on that device and I don't believe there's a signal or anything generated when the USB cable is unplugged. Your best bet would be to build your own watch dog timer or perhaps look at a DIO device with this functionality built in.

UTP Cable Length for AP connect to POE Switch

Dear All,
What is the limitiation on the length of UTP Cable for connect AP to POE Switch.
Thanks.
C.K.

I believe it's consistent with the limits for structured cabling: 100 meters end-to-end, assuming the cabling system is compliant with EIA/TIA sandards.

Extending DVI cable length for 30" display

With my new home office setup the computer will sit 25ft from the 30" Cinema display, so what are my options connecting this beast?
+
DVI Coupler (Female to Female) and DVI Male Digital/DVI Male Digital Dual Link (24AWG) Cable - 25FT
Would that work? Or maybe switch to an HDMI solution with DVI to HDMI adapters?
Thanks!

A 10 ft. dual-link DVI extension should work, depending on the quality of the cable. Try to find a M-F cable, so you won't need a gender changer. You want to have the minimum number of connections.

Problem of X200 with 15 feet USB cable

Hi,
I have a X200 with the ultrabase and I used to use a 6 feet USB cable connect to a HP Laserjet P2015N printer but now when I use the 15 feet USB cable and the system says USB device not recognized. and I can use the 15 feet cable to connect to another printer with my HP laptop. Any idea?
Thanks,
Davy

You are at the limit of USB cable length for USB 2.0....
Q1: How long of a cable can I use to connect my device?
A1: In practice, the USB specification limits the length of a cable between full speed devices to 5 meters (a little under 16 feet 5 inches).

... so use a shorter, and good quality, cable.

USB Cable short length & Why earphone is white??

Yesterday i have purchased Xperia M2 Dual, and i am really disapointed to see USB cable length and White Colored Earphone, in Indian home generally we have switch board at 2 to 3 feet height from the floor level, and due to short length of the USB cable i am facing problem that where to fix cell phone while charging, i am using stool now and thats why its quite tuff to charge the cell phone, so why Sony's R&D team is not thinking this, Another problem i found about earphone, i think more then 80% people on the globe like to use Black colored electronic instrument same as me, and thats why i choose Black colored M2 Dual, then why Earphone is White?? how its looks, Black Cell phone and white earphone??? not so good color combination, Please sony think about this, i am really disapointed.

I don't want to antagonize you at all, but after reading your post, it seems that you want the product to be tailored to you. The length of the cable it's standard, there are longer micro USB cables available in the market, or extensions, as for the color of the headphones that vary per region, even phones in the same country could contain different items. But make sure to contact Sony directly as this is a user based forum. http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/contactUs/
