Pros: The newegg description doesn't mention it, but this is an active cable which is what makes it so reliable at this distance. I did a whole bunch of benchmarks using a Vantec USB 3.0 hub, and the transfer rates through this cable are equal to the little 2 foot cable included with the hub. No errors, no stutters, great cable.
Cons: None.
Overall Review: 10 feet is the recommend cable length for USB 3.0, and this cable is twice that length. There is a bump in this cable at the mid point, which appears to be an amplifier of some sort. The packaging mentions "Advanced Amplifier Technology"
