Just a correction: On the second end it's not a type-B connector, but a type A receptacle. The type B is the square one you often find in printers and other large devices. Nice video regardless
Quite useful, good idea to take advantage of this type of cable and useful tips for soldering. Thanks a lot.
you know what's even better? scrap shielded pair!. you can attach the shield to the USB shell and this way you'll get lower interference. cheap USB cables usually have no shielding at all where a good ones have
Exactly. You can use FTP instead of UTP and it'll work even better.
Why didn't I think of this before? Thanks, it's an awesome tip.
Brother thank you. I have been looking ev here on how to extend a usb for a camera. N I have all this Cat5e laying around you are one of the few who didn’t say. Go buy a bigger cable. Duh!! So liked and subbed. Ty ty
Great video, thank you!
9:57 so funny, nice to see you trimmed that lil green bit off the bottom corner hahaha
You can also use a dab of hot glue on the end of the type a (7:27) cable. When you want to remove it you can use a little bit of isopropyl alcohol. Great video!
Yep, especially the other end seemed vulnerable to shorting after prolonged (ab)use. Thanks for the tip on removal haha, didn't know this before. It will come in damn handy in the future.
@@ibendiben yeah hot glue is near impossible to remove without isopropyl alcohol. It just gives up when it's drunk lol.
Great video! Really cool!
Wow this is very useful for stuff which has a super short cable and for beginners and also since you made the ground and the 5v+ with two wires together it's super strong and works perfectly, thank you so much my friend, and could you please make a video about almost the same thing but with the other end use a micro plug (exactly a great DIY USB charging cable) cause a lot of people tried and failed cause they only connected the ground and the 5v+ they didn't soldier the data +and- together during their work, and thank you anyways you don't have to do it but thank you both ways my friend I literally IN LOVE with such stuff anything electric or electronic so I love your channel you make anything looks so simple thanks man also i love your soldiering gun (it's not a gun shaped I know but...... 😂I don't know what its called, ironer or something like that i don't know however I love it) Aw and please please could you make an another video about how to make a DIY small ironer tip from a piece of copper wire or the best material you've worked with, cause most of soldiering guns or ironers comes with a big ceramic tips and they're not fit to work with mobile's boards and not the best, we want one which can work with complicated electronics and narrow soldiering spaces so yeah i will be super thankful if you make it and also thank you anyways & sorry for this long comment 😅
Great video.
Huh. I used this for signalling between the two halves of a keyboard but it never occurred to me to use my huge drum of CAT6 cable for USB. Thanks!
Thanks for useful video can i use this for connecting router and laptop.
Can we interchange the position of Green Wire with Green+White Wire ?
NICE 👍👍👍👍👍
Can I use rj45 on the B side and female usb for usb type wifi card?
No mention of other USB types?
@RonMattino I made something similar back in the day when iphone wasn't even out yet. I found that because of the long cord, the resistance went way up and it would charge slow as. :(
Will this slow down data transfers or have much of an affect on new phones?
Not really. If it can detect the USB device, it will work as it should. If device is not detected, it won't work at all. There isn't a 3rd option here. Did you use twisted pair in your cable that you mention?
What is we make ethernet RJ45 connector at other end
11:50 the signal lines looked like they were touching
How many meters do you think you could have it? 20m?
If you do as you do, using USB 3.0 will be more reasonable because you only need to solder 8 pins to connect 3.0 (remove the GND_DRAIN pin).
Of course it is backward compatible with 2.0
I refer from this page: wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_3.0
How about a usb speed test. Can this be done with USB 3.0, or does that require more wires?
Yes, USB 3.0 has more wires, actually two more twisted pairs. But 90% devices today still use the 2.0 standard.
USB and Ethernet share the same twisted cable transmission standard because USB can tether hotspot data using the Ethernet protocol.
They share the same hardware standard. USB tethering is something else. :)
Can this method be used to connect a xbox one/ps4 controller in a 15m run from said xbox one/ps4 to another room?. Ive ran a 15m hdmi run in the same direction for satellite tv. Thought why not try using my roll of ethernet creating a usb run to control my Xbox or ps4 connected to that HDMI run. Thanks
For 15m I would use CAT6 FTP cable.
So how many USB-Acan I put on a cat six shielded cable?
Isn't it bad to use twisted pairs for current? Won't it act as a coil and consume energy?
It's DC, so it won't act as a coil.
Never slice the cable there is a string inside you pull to strip the sheathing off .....
