The extension cable provides an alternative to directly connecting your Sierra™ Wireless Compass™ 597 to your computer.

The extension cable can be used to connect to your home computer for a "fixed" solution in your home office. Using the cable gives you easier access to the USB port, which may be difficult to reach on the back of the CPU.

In addition, some laptops have vertical, side-by-side, USB ports. When plugged in directly, the Compass 597 USB modem will block both USB ports. By using the cable, you can use the device and still access the second USB port for other peripherals.

The USB extension cable is flexible and retains its shape.

Note: Use only the supplied USB extension cable; other cables may not work with the USB modem.
