Tips for Heavily Oxidized Aluminum. First of all, determine the extent of oxidation on the aluminum surface. If it is determined that the surface is in relatively good shape, i.e. light oxidation, then skip this step and move on to polishing with Flitz.
Q1: How long of a cable can I use to connect my device? A1: In practice, the USB specification limits the length of a cable between full speed devices to 5 meters (a little under 16 feet 5 inches). For a low speed device the limit is 3 meters (9 feet 10 inches).
However, in case you are using a 1.0/1.1 USB host and device, there are limits to the maximum length of the cable. The limit for USB 1.0/1.1 cable length is 3 meters (about 9 feet and 10 inches) and the maximum total length should not exceed 18 meters (about 59 feet). Back to Top.
