(S000616) available on your prod.
USB Cable Recommendations
If your device has a USB connector, to avoid enumeration or power issues:
Use a high-speed USB cable that is as short as possible.
Use a well-shielded cable with at least 24 AWG wire pair for power/ground and 28 AWG wire pair for data
lines.
If possible, use a USB port that connects directly to the motherboard rather than a USB port with added
cabling inside the computer chassis.
Use USB 3.0 ports if available. These ports are typically rated for more current.
You can order the USB cable through MultiTech. The part number is CA-USB-A-MICRO-B-3.
