This is a 16 foot MicroUSB cable, there is usually no reason to need such a long cable as it means you either have to mount it or have extra excess . If you have standard mounts this cable will do, but for me this cable is for use with a standing desk and keyboard that uses a microUSB input where the standard six feet would be disconnected. There is enough wiggle room that I can still place the full height tower where I want and the cable is still not an issue. The ends are well finished and the nylon fiber is kink resistant.
