One nice thing about this cable that you might not find in other USB instrument cables is that it has a quick disconnect at the USB computer so if you tug the cable taut instead of damaging your connector, the cable just comes apart at the quick disconnect. It's a good safety feature. The cable is well made although lighter than your typical guitar cable. The 1/4" plug seems to be good quality so even if you don't have Rocksmith it's still a good choice for a USB instrument cable.
No regrets about buying the cable although it was somewhat pricey. I use the cable on a Windows computer and the cable works fine with other software besides Rocksmith such as my webcam media program, Guitar Rig 3, and Audacity.
It is a bit frustrating that the cable is necessary. My amp has a USB output that I was hoping to use with Rocksmith, but Rocksmith won't accept input from it. I've read that some people split the guitar signal (with a Y cord?) so that they can send the output to both an amp and to Rocksmith at the same time. That seems like a good idea, but not having tried it I can't personally vouch for it.
If cross platform flexibility and convenience is something that you’re after I think this is definitely worth it. Being able to use the same cable on pc and consoles is nice if you were going to bring your guitar with you to play with friends or some such. There’s a bit more versatility here than in an audio interface in that regard.
If quality and recording is what you’re after, I would recommend spending some time looking into audio interfaces, but that’s just my two cents.
Technical
The dimensions of the actual plug do seem to run just a bit long, maybe somewhere between a sixteenth to an eighth compared to a general quarter inch audio cable. I also noticed that there’s a bit of an issue with how “snug” the cable feels compared to a typical audio cable plug as well, and it’s easy for it to “slip” out a bit. I’ll update if this becomes an issue, but so far it’s been fine.
Wrap up
Can it play Rocksmith/Rocksmith+ on multiple platforms? Yes.
Can it technically record? Yes.
Does it function out of the box? Yes.

Das Kabel ist zwar etwas teuer, aber es besteht ein gutes Preis-Leistungs Verhältnis.
Auf jeden Fall ein Muss wenn man Rocksmith nutzen möchte, ich empfehle es weiter.
Soweit ich mich noch erinnere musste man nach dem Anschließen des Kabel nur den Rechner neu starten, dann hat wurde der Treiber direkt installiert.
