VRStream Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 check out this link, your HDMI will be OK, just but you won;t be able to make your USB cables go that far 5m Max. You could look at using some sort of media convertor? eg HMDI-to-IP ? LINK TO TABLE You can get long HDMI from ebay easy enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VRStream Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 also, the vive station boxes I think are bluetooth? if they are no way will they go 50ft through walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldkatz Posted November 8, 2017 Author Share Posted November 8, 2017 going to be using a active repeater usb3 cable with its own power supply https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0053YLYLC/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I3MTLPSCO1Z2RW&colid=3P0CNEP4OJHZW the link box is going to be on the end of the hdmi run so it will still be in range of the lighthouses. thank you for the quick reply.

Synthesis Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I would definitely suggest using a repeater for the USB and probably the HDMI cable as well for that distance.Thanks, -John C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuantumRage Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 if you want an extremely long distance connection the best thing I could suggest is using an ethernet cable and related adapters too connect the link box to the pc and so forth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
