You need one of these at the required length.
Is it by chance a wireless mouse? If new and Apple brand, it will be wireless.
It is but it needs to be connected via charging cable to charge. No compatible port!

A good point Mal-S. Original Apple cords like that can be acquired at OWC for about $7. I just bought 2 from them about 3 weeks ago to replace old, frayed phone cords.
