Overall, it works very well and i recommend it. Happy with my purchase. They do exactly as advertised.

Cons

Form factor is decent, but the design is garish. Call quality is mediocre.

Heavy cable overpowers the weight of the dock part and causes it to tip to the side. Usb spec says the voltage drop must not exceed 0. Dust in the desktop end of the extension could be a problem.

Quality


The build quality is solid and it feels like a cable that will last for a long time.


Used with the mini usb fingerprint reader for the desktop.

Packaging/appearance


Heavy enough that it doesn't get pushed around my desk, but small enough to stay out of the way.

Competitiveness


I used to use startech components back in my pc building days and i recognized the name, and so far it hasn't let me down.


Still working flawlessly after 6 months of swapping out various adata, corsair, kingston, and samsung flash drives.


It just extends the usb bus for the port 5-feet, that's it.
