floppy problem

My floppy has an internal usb cable that is too short to reach any of the connectors on the motherboard. Any ideas on where I can find an extension cable? The cable in question is a flat four prong female.

Thanks

Is this a floppy/card reader combo? Floppy drives don't have usb connections normally. Is the cable end designed to connect to a mobo/usb header or is it a standard male usb connector. Got a link to the product in question? A visual would certainly help.

sorry about the scarce information.

yes, its a floppy/card reader, . Mitsumi FA404A/FA404M-Black 7-in-1 USB 2.0 Media Drive
This is not a usb cable that you plug into a usb port. Instead, it is a four pin female connector that I assume I plug into a usb connector on the mobo.

Thanks
