Optical Cables by Corning 5.5 Meter Thunderbolt Cable | Mini DisplayPort Computer Device Connect Cable 5.5M

If you need a long thunderbolt cable run, then this is about the only option available.Regular copper thunderbolt cables max out at about 10ft in length.As a long run thunderbolt cable, this works well, however there are two important things to know.1) It can not function as a DisplayPort cable, for a display it will only work with a thunderbolt display.2) The connectors on these cables get hot, so hot they will burn your hand if you touch them, so hot they will overheat and fail. This is a common fault the manufacturer has admitted. I suggest running a small PC fan pointed at the cable connector otherwise they will burn out within 3 months of use. This happened to me in a room that is consistently 67f. Once I replaced and added a fan, the cables have worked fine.
