Many computers have trouble tethering with USB 3.0 connections. Tethering connections rely on power from the camera and/or computer to transfer images successfully. Under USB3 specifications you should be able to go 3’ without any issues. However many computer manufacturers are not building USB3 ports to USB.org specifications in order to conserve power. These manufacturers are not currently considering the unique needs of photographers and this is causing connectivity issues. Read this helpful article to understand more: Why does my connection fail?
For tethering distances greater than 15 feet, per USB specifications, consider a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Active Extension to preserve signal integrity and minimize noise.
Also, available in a Right Angle Cable.
