The TetherPro Optima 10G USB-C TetherBoost Locking Extension Cable is engineered for professional photographers and videographers who require reliable, high-speed data transmission over extended distances. By utilizing dual integrated TetherBoost Pro chipsets, it maintains a robust 10Gbps transfer rate, making it an essential tool for high-resolution studio workflows. While its rugged construction and proprietary locking mechanism offer unmatched stability, users should note that the cable's robust shielding makes it less flexible than standard consumer-grade USB-C cables.

While it can pass power, it is primarily designed for high-speed data. It is not intended for high-wattage device charging.
Yes, it is backward compatible with USB-C ports, including those that support Thunderbolt 3 or 4 protocols for data transfer.
You can daisy-chain up to four units to reach a maximum length of 19.2 meters.
The SecureLock mechanism is designed to fit standard USB-C ports securely, but physical clearance on some camera bodies with recessed ports may vary.
No, the TetherBoost Pro chipsets are plug-and-play and function automatically once the cable is connected.
Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the exterior. Avoid liquid cleaners or solvents.
Verify that the SecureLock mechanism is fully engaged and check that your computer port is USB 3.1 Gen 2 or higher compatible.
Ensure the cable is not being daisy-chained beyond the 19.2m manufacturer limit and check for driver updates on your tethering software.
Unplug both ends, wait 10 seconds, and reconnect. Ensure you are not using an additional passive hub between the extension and the host computer.
To ensure optimal performance, connect the USB-C SecureLock end directly to the device port and engage the locking mechanism until it clicks. If daisy-chaining multiple units, ensure all connections are tight. For maintenance, keep the connectors free of debris using compressed air. Avoid wrapping the cable tightly around sharp corners; instead, use a loose 'over-under' coil technique to maintain the integrity of the internal copper shielding. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use, and avoid stepping on the housing, as the internal boosters are sensitive to crushing forces.
