The controller comes with a relatively short USB cable, like all Ultimates.
As I would like to place my docking station on the opposite side (i.e. a good 50cm further than it is now), I would like to use a different cable for this. Do you know which ones really work?

I've already tried an alternative cable that was still in my drawer, but the controller was charged in the station (i.e. power is flowing), but it is not recognised - even if I connect it directly to that cable via USB.
Are there any long USB cables that work safely with this? Or alternatively an appropriate extension?

Answer

You could also try a USB-C to USB-C cable, but unfortunately I couldn't find any official instructions from the manufacturer. According to my research, any cable should work as long as it is designed for data transfer.
