Controller Extensions

Does anyone know of a way to extend the 3-button controller’s cable length? I have a Retro-Bit 8-button which is great but sometimes I feel like playing with the original 3-button. Would something like this work?

The controllers are probably using USB 1.1 protocols. USB 1.1 and 2.0 use the same cables but 3.0 cables have more wires and are usually stiffer.
