Just need a recommendation for a decent quality cable that works - bonus if it’s something I can find in downtown Chicago today.

2018 Mini, using it as hub for my AV system and now want to move my monitor/workstation around the corner. I need a 3m cable to do so. HDMI port on the Mini is already in use. Thanks!

Found one answer - looks like startech makes a 3m usb-c to DisplayPort cable that should provide good video quality...from what I’ve read that doesn’t help with data, though. Correct?

Would a 3m usb-c or thunderbolt cable need to be active to support 4K and data? I’m not finding them readily available.
