Tether Tools TetherPro Optima 10G USB-C Cable 15′ (4.6 m) – High-Speed Tethering Cable

The TetherPro Optima 10G 15′ USB-C Cable is built for photographers, videographers, and content creators who demand reliable, high-speed data transfers between camera and computer. With USB 3.2 Gen 2 rated for up to 10 Gbps, it ensures fast image and video offload without lags or interruptions. The extended 15-foot length gives freedom of movement in studio setups, tethered shoots, or when working on location where shorter cables restrict positioning.

Beyond speed, the Optima 10G cable is designed for durability. It features a robust, weather-resistant jacket, reinforced strain relief, and options with right-angle or straight ends to reduce stress on ports. Soft-grip tips and clear labeling make setup easier. The cable is also backward compatible, so even if your gear supports lower speeds, it works well with those too.

Key Features

• USB-C 10 Gbps transfer (USB 3.2 Gen 2)

• 15′ (≈4.6 m) length for flexible studio/field tethering

• Durable housing, weather-resistant and kink-resistant design

• Reinforced strain relief to protect USB-C connectors

• Soft-grip cable ends, clear camera/computer labeling

• Straight-to-right-angle or straight-to-straight connector options

• Backward compatibility with older USB-C devices

Advantages — Why This Cable Stands Out

• Faster image/video transfers during tethered shoots reduce waiting time

• Longer length gives flexibility without compromising speed or stability

• Durable construction reduces wear on ports and cable over repeated use

• Weather resistant and built tough for field work, not just studio

• Available in visible colors (option) helps identify and avoid tripping or damage

Best Suitable For

• Studio photographers doing tethered shoots with DSLRs or mirrorless cameras

• Videographers needing reliable long-cable connections for camera rigs or gimbals

• Content creators streaming or recording while connected to computer

• Travel & outdoor shooters who need rugged, durable cable gear

• Anyone concerned about data integrity and avoiding dropped frames or corruption

Technical Specifications

FAQs

Q1: Is this cable good for tethered photography?
Yes, its 10 Gbps speed ensures fast, stable file transfer during tethered workflows without lag or interrupted data.

Q2: Can I use it with my smartphone or laptop that has USB-C?
Yes. It’s compatible with most USB-C ports; performance depends on your device’s USB spec (if lower, it works at that speed).

Q3: Does the right-angle connector help with cable stress?
Absolutely. The right-angle end (in right-angle variant) reduces bending at ports, which increases durability.

Q4: How durable is this cable in field use?
Very durable. It has reinforced strain relief, weather-resistant jacket, and design to resist kinks and wear.

Q5: Is this cable just for data transfer or can it deliver power?
It’s optimized for data transfer. While USB-C supports power, this cable is built for stable data over high speed; power delivery is not its main function.

Q6: Will this work for video streaming or USB-C capture?
Yes. For streaming or capture that uses USB-C data input, this cable’s high bandwidth makes it suitable for maintaining clean video/audio streams.
