Thunderbolt 4 Extension for Mac Studio + Studio Display — Need 5m Cable or Adapter
Is there any Thunderbolt 4 or Thunderbolt 5 extension adapter that would work for this setup?
I’m trying to keep my Mac Studio about 5 m away from my Studio Display. I already have Apple’s 3 m Thunderbolt 4 Pro cable, and it works perfectly with the Mac Studio + Studio Display.
I purchased OWC’s 4.5 m Thunderbolt 4 optical active cable, but unfortunately it doesn’t work with this setup—the Studio Display won’t even turn on.
Would it be possible to use some kind of Thunderbolt extension adapter with my existing 3 m Apple cable, and then add another 1–2 m Thunderbolt 4 cable to reach the 5 m distance?
Any recommendations for a reliable solution would be greatly appreciated.
