When should I use a longer video cable vs. a video extender?

You should only use video converters and extenders if it is absolutely necessary to do so. In many cases, most video converters and extenders are not necessary if you purchase the correct cable.

The following table lists the maximum length of cable for common video standards.
DisplayPort - 50 ft. (15.2m)
HDMI - 50 ft. (15.2m)
