Hello,


I can't seem to figure out what type of USB connector this is.

The one on the left is a Mini USB Type B I think.



It's not a Mini Type A since they are the same size as the Mini Type B. It's not Micro A/B either since I have those and they are not it.

uc-e6 is a nikon model number for their camera 8-pin mini-B cable.

the 8-pin mini-B cable is used by many of the camera manufacturers to connect to USB i.e. for file sharing without an SD/CF reader.

Found a 8 pin Mini B cable, it's listed as 93972 part number. A google search says it's a Goobay cable.
https://www.amazon.com/Goobay-93972-.../dp/B003JG3KE0

However one review from Amazon says:
I bought this cable for charging LG 3D glasses (LG-AG-S250). Unfortunately not compatible. Connections fit, BUT there is no charging. 3 cables were tried out.

Is there some kind of special USB cable for 3D glasses?

Got the cable. Does not mention Goobay. Listed as Onni-Tec GmbH OTB-DK001. Fit in the glasses connector but does not charge.

Managed to talk to Benq and got a cable from that works.
