The replacement cable you suggested is also a good idea, in principle.

My only concern about utilizing one of these inexpensive cables is
that Kodak designed its cable (the one that it recommends using with
the camera) with a big hump in the middle

See:

The big hump in the middle is just a Ferrite Damper, (a lump of iron).
Even most of the cheap cables have these, they only cut down on
interference.
