4.0 out of 5 stars If you searched for "Micro USB" THIS IS NOT IT, July 1, 2010

This review is from: Tripp Lite U022-010 USB2.0 Certified Gold A/B Device Cable - 10ft (Personal Computers)

For some reason this cable shows up when one searches Amazon for "micro USB" -- and from the angle the product shot was taken you can't see that the device-end of the cable is a big fat "printer type" USB connection. In the photo it looks flat and similar to other illustrations of micro USB cables. But it's not.

I wasn't familiar enough with the USB connector designations to be suspicious. I've now learned that ALL sizes of USB device connectors (i.e. the end that you DON'T plug into your computer) are called "B", and you have to pay close attention to whether it's a plain "B" (like this cable, for printers, scanners, etc.), a "mini B" (and there may actually be two sizes of mini), or a "micro B" (what I needed for my cell phone).

Live and learn. For less than five bucks each I'm not going to bother returning these -- they're perfectly good USB A/B cables, and you never know when you'll need an extra one, or a longer one. (At 10 feet these are longer than most -- handy for placing a printer a bit further away from your PC.) And when you suddenly realize you need one, you DON'T want to pay retail store prices for any cable!

Country-of-origin note: made in China. (What did you expect?)

5.0 out of 5 stars A cautionary tale, March 14, 2008

Sometimes, not very often, but on occasion when I'm working into the wee hours of the morning I can hear, but only faintly, the gold plated connectors denouncing the rather pedestrian connectors of all of my other USB cables. Once, my external hard drive cable, a finicky connection under the best of circumstance, was so distraught it simply ceased to function and had to be replaced with a compatriot from the Tripp cabal. Now I fear there is a conspiracy underfoot to force me to replace all of my cables.

You see, since they are backward compatible and less costly than cables you generally find in brick and mortar stores, they feel superior...but only until I marshall the courage to complete my wireless installation, then what will they do?

It's a cable. It works.
