Would this cable work in the USB slot of a smart tv? Ours is wall mounted and I would love to leave a cord plugged in that we could easily attach/detach game consoles, fire sticks, etc without having to take the TV off of the wall.

I bought 2 of these to use with my XBOX Sereis X becuase I wanted to use my corded controller. Funny how either one worked great alone, but when I used them together I got nothing. Must be a length limitation thing. Any ideas?
Answered by InsigniaCustomerSupportThank you for your inquiry! Using two Insignia™ 12' USB 3.0 A-Male to A-Female Extension Cables together to extend the length for your corded controller on the Xbox Series X may result in connectivity issues due to factors such as signal degradation, power limitations, or USB 3.0 length restrictions. To address this, consider using an active USB extension cable with built-in electronics to boost the signal over longer distances, ensuring a strong and stable connection. Alternatively, a powered USB hub between the two extension cables can help deliver enough power to your controller, preventing voltage drops over long distances. If possible, opt for a shorter extension cable, as USB 3.0 cables have a recommended maximum length of about 9.8 feet (3 meters) for optimal performance. Using a single longer active USB extension cable, rather than two passive ones, can maintain signal integrity over greater distances. Additionally, using a USB repeater, which regenerates the USB signal, can allow for longer connections without data loss. Finally, ensure the cables are of high quality and rated for USB 3.0 to provide adequate shielding and performance. These solutions can help maintain a stable connection for your corded controller over extended lengths.
