Online 0.5m USB-C QR Pigtail Cable Cables

Introducing the QRP Pigtail System – Built for Flexibility, Speed, and Protection

The QRP Pigtail System features short, 0.5m cables in three configurations:

USB-C to USB-C

USB 3.0 Type B to USB-C

Micro-B to USB-C

Designed specifically for photographers and digital techs, these compact cables allow you to keep your camera securely tethered using a cable lock, while adding a 5m or 10m extension as needed, without ever undoing the tether lock.

This setup provides two key advantages:

1.  Quick Disconnect Workflow – If the photographer needs to break away and shoot to card, say, running down a hill for an impromptu shot-they can unplug the extension and go. When they return and reconnect, Capture One’s re-tethering feature will automatically import the new images, keeping the workflow seamless.

2. Long-Term Cable Protection – Most tethering damage happens where the cable exits the camera tether lock. The added stress at that right-angle bend is a common failure point. Our short pigtail system prevents this by acting as a buffer. If there’s ever damage or a pinch, you only need to replace the short cable, not the full $109-$159 tether, saving both time and money.

Compact, efficient, and cost-effective, this system was designed with real-world on-set needs in mind.
