- What's the truth about cable length? Do shorter cables always mean a better signal? Has digital technology made the question irrelevant, or is it still something you should think about?

For digital, the signal is either on or off so length does not matter until the cable gets so long that the signal drops out altogether. For analog, the signal can be affected by cable length or outside interference so cable length and shielding matters more.
can we actually get benchmarks of transfer speed and charging speed for different cable lenghts over on LinusTechTips?

Important addition to those copper cables that Linus completely forgot to mention:
If you use them to power something (i.e. usb) the actual rated distance may differ from the data distance.
For data all that matters is that the signal at the other end is above a minimum intensity in order to identify a 1 from a 0.
With power however, you need to have a minimum amount of it arriving.
As power, or data for that matter, travels through the copper cable some of it is 'spent' overcoming the resistance of the cable itself meaning the voltage at the end will be lower than at the start.
So while at the 'start' the cable might be fed with 5.0v, at the end that might have dropped to 4.5v or even less.
Some equipment might work fine with lower voltages, but some outright won't work or won't work properly.
It's also important to realize that not every USB cable is created equally. The 'usb power' wires in a usb cable can vary in thickness and thus resistance.
A usb cable with ticker power wires, and thus lower resistance, will drop in voltage less over distance than a (usually cheaper because less copper is used) cable with thinner wires.
It's also not just a case of "well just feed more voltage into it then to overcome the distance". If you feed 12v into a usb cable that's 10m long and it's dropped down to 5v that means those 'lost' 7 watts (assuming 1 Ampere current) are literally heating your cable up. It could melt or, worse still, catch on fire.
I have a 40 ft USB extention cable I use to charge my phone. lmfao
GLACIAL tf
There will be no bit reflections because it is only transmitting power not data
But you’re all forgetting about the increase in electrical resistance in ohms created by a thinner, or longer cable
The only USB cables that I can fast charge my phone with are all less than 10 inches long. The longest cables I've used tend to make my phone display "charging slowly". It does matter.

Thanks Linus! In the market for purchasing HDMI cables at 30' or 40' long and needed to know if a repeater is necessary. I thought 25' was the safe limit for HDMI... although same are saying that is true depending on the build quality, at which point is a matter of how or miss, or x out y cables are likely to have issues at the given length.

Good video. Was looking for that when planning my projector setup.
Darn, I wanted an external GPU that was 200 feet away from my gaming rig. Thanks for ruining my dreams.
I've been looking at systems where increasing from 0.5m to 1m cables creates a significant (>1%) increase in latency for network traffic so it's not always about signal integrity.
Great video. I do fiber optic splicing and fusing occasionally at my job and it is very tedious work. The machine test for DB loss in the fuse. The worst I accept is a .02 DB loss.
The only CZcamsr who make serious diverse differences..most of the rest do just phone comparisons but this guy's goes beyond to computers and their peripherals ...u the man keep it up
Same thing with charging. At 5v, USB charging really can slow at 10 feet (an the cable is easier to damage)
It's almost better to use a regular extension cord vs long USB cable. Of course, with newer fast chargers negotiating up to 20v, that may not matter. But does the longer length or more change of a damaged bit of cable hamper the negotiation. Defaulting it to 5v
I have been told that many prefer a long, thick cable with a massive plug on the end to open up and expand the data stream over a short, thin one with a small plug. Or so I have been told.
i love the little bloopers the editors leave in. The bit with the cell phone was funny. Makes the entire video feel more "real"

Signal degradation is rough. I had the most messed up problem with a long usb cable extender, and it wasn't a matter of "it either works or it doesn't". The USB cable was "mostly" working but my mouse would occasionally freeze for a second and then resume. Mostly harmless, but for a gamer this won't work. Also the lights weren't syncing on my peripheral devices.
It was hours and hours of troubleshooting before I figured out it was the usb cable extender. I didn't understand about signal degradation in long cords. It's really, really frustrating.
The theory is nice. Now take that subject to LinusTechTips and let's see if an HDMI cable will start to fail when surpassing 15 meters.
considering what Linus said about the maximum lengths for those cables, I'm pretty happy the only long cable I need is for ethernet, everything else being under 1m long
Thank you for explaining especially the difference between cable-possibilities, kind regards.
Thank you Sir. Very helpful
No, Linus, I'm not building a website. Thanks for asking though.

So everyone has to insert their cables into one hub? Hmmm......interesting!
This is particularly significant with antenna wiring. Signal is lost as the distance increases and it can be noticed. Although boosters help to overcome this problem. (And it's somewhat relative since I happen to have an antenna running into my computer's TV card.)
very informative. thank you!
2:19 quote from ricegum
There are a number of technical errors in this video. First, 1:29 you mean resistance or attenuation, not impedance. The characteristic impedance of a cable doesn't change with distance, but signal attenuation does. This is due to dielectric loss as well as ordinary resistance; worse, dielectric loss increases at higher frequencies, which is why higher bandwidth signals (eg USB 3 vs USB 2) are more sensitive to length than lower bandwidth signals.
3:30 it's not reflections that cause the problem, it's dielectric loss, and reflections are caused by impedance mismatches (usually due to crappy cable and/or connectors). Delay has nothing to do with it, except insofar as delay affects how reflections degrade a signal. A properly designed impedance-controlled transmission line (which these sorts of cables are) should have minimal reflections, can have wide bandwidth and can be much longer than the highest frequency component it carries.
Example: the actual cable of CATV has a bandwidth of around 800 MHz or so and can carry multiple gigabit digital signals in DOCSIS 3, yet CATV cable runs are commonly way longer than anything you'd find in a single household (and can be miles and miles with appropriate regeneration). The difference is in the design of the protocol, the quality of cable and launch power amongst others.
Aside from dielectric loss, there are no analogue-domain limitations in principle on the length of a cable, provided it is properly impedance matched. (Example: SATA and SAS are the same protocols and use the same sort of cabling, but SAS has a higher voltage drive so it can reach further.) There's one exception to that: some protocols are designed in such a way that excess latency (delay or response to a message) can break them. GSM phones, for example, have an absolute limit of 35km, regardless of signal strength or boosters.
3:40 Reflections don't cause damage except in high power RF transmitters because there's just not enough energy in them to do any damage. They will, however, degrade signal integrity which will make the signal unusable.
Linus says impedance, not characteristic impedance, so he's right in that regard.
Dielectric loss causes the signal to not reach the other end, but we're talking about a tighter limit when the signal reaches the other end intact-the device needs to ACK back fast enough. USB is half-duplex but apparently requires a short ACK time. Impedance matching solves the amplitude of reflection so that the host can send another bit faster because it does not have to wait for the reflection to settle nearly as long, but the ACK requirement still limits the delay. Linus is half-right in that reflection can matter, but he fails to point out another limit when reflection is limited via matching circuits.
You're right that "the difference is in the design of the protocol, the quality of cable and launch power amongst others". Depending on the combination of these factors a standard may hit one limit before another.
The USB committee thinks that reflection can damage the circuit though www.usb.org/developers/usbfaq/#cab1
> Linus says impedance, not characteristic impedance, so he's right in that regard.
Not really. Impedance and attenuation are not the same things. Attenuation is a combination of frequency-dependent dielectric parallel loss and resistive (ie non-reactive) series loss, both resulting in heat dissipation in the cable. Resistive loss gets worse with frequency because of the skin effect, but that's different again from dielectric absorption.
As you say, dielectric loss causes the signal not to reach the other end of the cable because it's all gone as heat, and there's nothing you can do about that except get lower loss cable or amplify the source driver.
Impedance (characteristic or lumped), OTOH, is about power transfer. You can transfer all developed power at any impedance (within reason) provided source and sink are matched with the effective impedance of the transmission line.
I'm simplifying a bit: you can't easily compensate for impedance mismatches in a transmission line with a matching network, however you can use RF traps or stubs as notch filters to filter out specific frequencies, but that doesn't work with baseband signals.
> Impedance matching solves the amplitude of reflection so that the host can send another bit faster because it does not have to wait for the reflection to settle nearly as long
As you say, impedance mismatches result in reflections that reduce the power delivered to the load - but the energy hasn't gone away as with attenuation, it's merely not going where it should. Reflections also degrade signal integrity as well as reducing power available at the load.
In a properly impedance-matched, load-terminated system, you don't need to wait for anything to settle because all transmitted power is fully absorbed by the receiver's terminator and there is no particular limit, save for attenuation, on the rate at which you can transmit bits down a properly matched transmission line.
Source-terminated systems achieve the same ends but depend on constructive interference from reflected wavefronts to build up full signal magnitude (c.f. parallel PCI reflected-wave switching).
It's been too long a go since I studied source termination since none of the designs I've worked on use it and I can't remember what happens when the bit rate approaches the return-reflection period or what the implications for USB SI (as opposed to ACK times) would be.
> when the signal reaches the other end intact-the device needs to ACK back fast enough. USB is half-duplex but apparently requires a short ACK time.
True, but this is a protocol matter, not a property of the cable and the time scales are completely different.
Even at a pessimistic 50% c, signals still go about 6 inches per nanosecond or 20 ns per 10' cable. From memory, the polling period of USB 2 high-speed is 125 µs which is about 6000 times slower than the propagation delay in a 10' cable and 600 times slower than a 100' cable (if you could build a lossless cable), which is still plenty of time to return the ACK.
The cables FAQ you linked talks about a budget of 26ns cable delay for the sake of signal integrity in badly terminated transmission lines, not because of ACK timeouts.
I'm not sure what the exact timeout is on USB. One source I read suggested 50 ms, but that might only be for lower speed USB devices, and that's 6 orders of magnitude slower than propagation delay.
> Linus is half-right in that reflection can matter
Yes, but for the wrong reasons, hence my OP.
> The USB committee thinks that reflection can damage the circuit though
They're suggesting that, under the right circumstances, there can be enough constructive reflection interference as to damage the driver.
Assuming adequate ESD protection, that seems unlikely because I don't see constructive interference amounting to kilovolts.
Besides, if I remember how source termination works correctly, the outbound wavefront is 50% magnitude and the reflection builds up to 100% magnitude. If USB is source terminated and setting aside inductive effects, it shouldn't be possible to get > Voh.
Thanks for the reply. I'm in computer engineering and this conversation again proves how little do I know outside of my own comfort zone. One more question though: why does the USB committee have a tighter limit on low-speed cables (18ns) than high-speed cables (26ns)? This doesn't quite make sense to me and I thought the only reason is the speed the device replies, but as you said it shouldn't matter here. Do they assume low-speed cables are crappier?
> I'm in computer engineering
Nominally, I'm a computer scientist but I've ended up doing mostly electronic engineering in my professional career, plus I have a recently-acquired interest in software-defined radio. Just one of those things, I guess.
> One more question though: why does the USB committee have a tighter limit on low-speed cables (18ns) than high-speed cables (26ns)?
Good question. I'd have to closely examine the USB standard to answer that properly, but I don't have a copy of it to hand.
I'm not used to allowing for ringing and poor SI; I'm much more accustomed to ensuring that there is good SI and as little ringing and ground-bounce as possible. IOW, design the protocol to avoid bad conditions, that way you don't have to compensate for them.
USB is a truly awful protocol (I built a USB HID for a flight simulator), but it's cheap and we're stuck with it.
> This doesn't quite make sense to me
Nor to me.
Normally, propagation delay is a sufficiently small proportion of processing latency that it is largely negligible. For example, 25 ns is 2.5 cycles of a 100 MHz clock, and even that is fairly slow by modern standards. You can do bugger all in 2 cycles, which illustrates why processing delay dominates propagation delay.
> Do they assume low-speed cables are crappier?
That would be a reasonable assumption ;) I am sure that cheap, low-speed devices have terrible electrical/SI characteristics.
USB is a cheap protocol designed for low cost devices. So is PCI Express, albeit on a slightly faster and smaller scale. Were it otherwise, it wouldn't gain sufficient market up-take.
No offence even though it's ages ago ... No one likes know it all's and the words used depend on your country

One thing that should be mentioned when talking about electrical cables and wires. When you use cables and wires that are longer then you need and you create a tangled mess you are probability creating impedance along with your mess. Of course if you are one of those people who take care of the mess problem by coiling your excess wire or cable are of course building impedance coils. This can happen even with shielded cables depending on how much electromagnetic bleed out your cables have. Speaker and power wires are especially susceptible to this. I know that I'm stating the obvious but a lot of people seem not to think of this considering some of the power and speaker runs that I've seen.
0:57 I thought he would talk about the sponsor lol
This has actually been a really big issue for me lately, giving me signal disconnects, flickering horizontal black lines, or completely no signal be detected. Getting 4k 60hz 4:4:4 from by computer to my TV with an HDMI cable around 30ft has proven to be pretty difficult. No matter what cable I buy, or what specs it is rated for, it seems to be a lottery. I've actually had multiples of the exact same cable, with one that works, and the other that doesn't.
Thank you for using the metric system!
Note: Since you are using specs in the first place: 100m solid core (as a replacement for the permanent/horizontal cable?) is out of specs, it might work or it won't or something in between for people who like troubleshooting. For regular patch cables (AWG24, stranded) the max length would be 85m.
My gf dumped me because my length wasn't at least 20ft. 20ft!! WHO NEEDS ALL OF THAT? I can hook up my HDMI from the cable box to the tv... what more does she need?

3:27 silence phone like a pro
Scratching his nuts like a pro, i didn't even notice
good topic to cover. thank you so much
Well, having a really long cable also affects the signal speed a lot, which can potentially give noticeable delays. The signal in an optical fiber travels at the speed of light in vacuum divided by the refractive index, usually about 1.5 for glass, meaning that it's ~33 % slower than in vacuum. For electrical cables, both digital and analog, the signal speed is probably less. For the cabling used at home, this probably doesn't matter much, but it IS measurable and scales with cable length.

Good final destination, but what you don't understand is all stuff on copper is analog, when wire is too long using a digital modulated signal you end up with a high error rate, with no FEC (forward error correction), you get fractals or artifacts. Plastic Fiber suffers not from attenuation, but rather from inter symbol interference due to the different paths through the plastic because the structure is not as uniform as in a glass predictable crystal structure because of how the glass is grown. The plastic causes light scattering smearing the signal causing errors.
Helpful explanation.
