An extender for use in an electro-mechanical surgical system includes a surgical attachment that may be detachably coupled to an electro-mechanical driver device via a flexible shaft. The extender is a substantially rigid extender that includes a proximal end that may be detachably coupled to a distal end of the flexible shaft. The extender also includes a distal end that may be detachably coupled to the surgical attachment. The extender also includes at least one rotatable drive shaft configured to engage and be secured with a respective rotatable drive shaft of the flexible shaft such that rotation of the respective rotatable drive shaft of the flexible shaft by the electro-mechanical driver device causes the at least one rotatable drive shaft of the extender to rotate, thereby rotating a complementary connector of the surgical attachment so as to operate the surgical attachment.

The extender of claim 1, wherein the wiring harness assembly further includes a data cable configured to transfer data between a memory unit located in the surgical attachment and the electro-mechanical driver device. 10. The extender of claim 1, wherein the first coupling of the handle is opposite the rigid tube. 11. An electro-mechanical surgical system, comprising: an electro-mechanical driver device including at least one rotatable drive member and a coupling associated with the at least one rotatable drive member;a surgical attachment configured to perform a surgical function, the surgical attachment including a coupling for receiving an operative force from the electro-mechanical driver device; anda substantially rigid extender for electromechanically selectively interconnecting the surgical attachment and the at least one rotatable drive member of the electro-mechanical driver device, the extender including: a handle;a substantially rigid tube coupled to and extending from the handle;a first coupling disposed on the handle, the first coupling being configured for detachable coupling to the coupling of the electro-mechanical driver device for providing operative connection to the at least one drive member of the electro-mechanical driver device, the first coupling including an integral electrical connector for connection with an electrical connector of the electro-mechanical driver device;a second coupling disposed at a free end of the rigid tube, the second couplingbeing configured for detachable coupling to a coupling of the surgical attachment; andat least two rotatable shafts disposed within the rigid tube, each rotatable shaft being configured to engage and be secured with a respective rotatable drive member of the electro-mechanical driver device such that rotation of the respective rotatable drive members by the electro-mechanical driver device causes the at least two rotatable shafts of the extender to rotate, thereby transmitting a force to the surgical attachment so as to operate the surgical attachment. 12. The electro-mechanical surgical system of claim 11, wherein the extender further comprises a wiring harness assembly disposed within the first coupling, the wiring harness assembly including the integral electrical connector, and a memory unit. 13. The electro-mechanical surgical system of claim 12, wherein the memory unit of the extender is configured to store one or more of serial number data, an attachment type identifier data and a usage data. 14. The electro-mechanical surgical system of claim 12, wherein the wiring harness assembly of the extender further comprises a data cable configured to transfer data between the memory unit and the electro-mechanical driver device. 15. The electro-mechanical surgical system of claim 11, wherein the wiring harness assembly of the extender further comprises a data cable configured to transfer data between a memory unit located in the surgical attachment and the electro-mechanical driver device. 16. The electro-mechanical surgical system of claim 11, wherein the surgical attachment is a surgical stapler-cutter. 17. The electro-mechanical surgical system of claim 11, wherein the first coupling of the handle of the extender is opposite the rigid tube.
