You can extend the length of the USB cable by using an active repeater cable. This is a powered USB extender that boosts the signal. We recommend the use of a quality brand such as Belkin or Lindy as cheaper quality USB extenders can have problems. Using a non-powered extender will not work as the voltage drops with USB as the distance increases.
