Hello,

The supplied cable is a small one, about 1ft long, if that helps.
Otherwise, I would also recommend accessing the SD card directly.
I experienced some issues with the SD card, in that the fitting /
cradle for it was a bit loose and often became open when I changed the
batteries, which lead to the SD card not working - however, this
shouldnt affect the USB.
