simplycam - USB connector size

​The USB cable that comes with Simply Cam is too long for me. Does anybody know what is the connector type for the camera side of the USB cable? ​

It's a USB Micro connector. You can find confirmation here if you want an "official" link:

Edit: Why not just coil the cable instead of buying a new one? It won't hurt anything to do so.

@worthing​  - it is coiled now but I need to plug in 2 cameras in one outlet and the outlet has a plastic cover or box and both cables rolled up will not fit in the outdoor outlet box / cover. 

I found a 16" USB cable with mini USB on one side on Amazon and will be testing when it arrives.
