Free shipping in the USA!!
Most cables are completed & shipped in less than a week, and you will receive an email with your tracking information when your cable has shipped.
Design your bespoke customized extra Detachable End to pair with your Artisan Dream Detachable USB Cable! Use the Paracord Color Chart to get a better look at the paracord colors we offer! You can also check out our Sample USB Cable page to see other customers’ previous combinations!
We also offer extra individual Detachable Host Ends!
Individual detachable USB cable ends to design your Dream straight or coiled keyboard cable! Mix and match different aviator detachable cables and cable ends to create more designs or make your detachable cable usable with different keyboards or PCs! You need the flexibility to use your cable with all of your keyboards and computers, without having to buy separate cables for each combination 🙂 Isn't that the true purpose of a detachable to begin with?
First, determine if you need a device or host end. Extra device detachable ends allow you to easily switch between mechanical keyboards, while extra host detachable ends allow you to move a keyboard between computers. Next, use our color chart to choose your favorite paracord pattern, and then choose your cable end length, USB connector end, heat shrink color, and whether or not you want a coil!
Our USB ends are placed into our USB cable queue and will be completed in the order they are made. If you order a Dream Custom Artisan Detachable USB Cable with your Custom Detachable End, they will be shipped simultaneously, just as they were ordered.
Check the FAQ page or contact us through our Contact Us Form or at [email protected] with any questions! Please note that orders can only be changed up to 24 hours after they have been placed due to how quickly we begin the process of assigning cables to our technicians and start cutting raw materials.
Specifications
We use 5-pin aviator connectors to create the detachable end of your cable.
All cables are tested before shipment and will arrive ready for you to use.
USB 2.0 spec only allows for cables to be about 15 feet long to work properly. Please understand that coils require more overall length to be added to your cable, which means that your overall device end length in combination with your detachable host end could cause your cable to have trouble transmitting the power necessary for your device.
We do not recommend trying to use a coil on each side of your detachable aviator, since your true cable length can quickly go out of USB 2.0 specifications.
For our complete cables, we limit customers to a 6-inch coil with an overall length of 9 feet or a 9-inch coil with an overall length of 6 feet, to stay within the 15-foot USB specifications.
Our detachable ends are designed to work with all Dream Cables detachables, but we can not guarantee functionality when mixed with cable ends from other cable vendors.
Micro & Mini Cables
If you select a Micro- or Mini-USB with a coiled cable, please be aware that a 90-degree layout will come with your Mini or Micro with the widest section down and the coil flowing to the right from the USB connector. An inline coil layout will provide more directional flexibility and adaptability for your cable.
Please note, if the USB port on your keyboard is on the underside of your board (i.e. certain Varmilo keyboards like the VA87M and MA87), the sleeved cable wire will not fit inside the cable guide notch at the back of your keyboard, meaning that your keyboard will not be able to sit flat on your desk.
