I know that Apple made a male-female ADB cable. Has there ever been an ADB

I'm also curious as to what length restrictions might apply to ADB cables.
Can I link 3 of the 6-foot M/F cables together to allow me to use my mouse
from 18 feet away? Even farther? Just asking...

I knew the length restriction at one time... I think it is under 18 feet,
however. I seem to remember "10 feet"...


As far as a f-to-f ABD cable? I wonder if a "y" ADB connector (a few bucks
from Micro Center) could be used/modified to fit your needs?

As far as using SVHS cables, I'm using one that's probably about 12-15' on my hacked G3. At the moment only the keyboard is connected - it has a MS Trackball Optical connected to its USB card.
