USB cable length

I am getting ready to set up a owl box video cam and need to run at least 75' of USB cable. How long can USB cable be before you get power drop and signal drop?

I've run USB2 over 100' with no problem. In fact, I have a 120' that I'm using now.

Thanks! Hopefully the cable won't cost more then the camera will.

I am having a tough time finding a 75' USB cable. But I did find a USB to cat5e converter that is supposedly better then a long USB cable length.

Up to now I have never needed more then the typical 6' USB cable.
