Does anyone know if you can get an DP extension cable for Rift S and how far can it be extended?

I bought a few cables to test. I have a 6 foot and a 10 foot. Will try when I get my headset.

@TheRealCyber - Yes. do let us know and if it works which cable it is please. Does the Rift S have a 9ft cable to start of with? It would be awesome if it can use a 10ft extension if it already has a 9ft one to begin with. That way I could play it in another room if it extends to 19ft in total.

The default cable is 5 meters so around 16 feet. That might be okay, but I'm hoping at least the 6 foot cable will work. That would be 22 feet total which should be enough for my room.

I agree actually. I would love about 20-22 feet. Honestly, I would love a good wireless solution, but 22 feet would allow a solid compromise.

@TheRealCyber - What about 10ft or even longer Cyber?

I have 10 foot cables, I haven't tried them yet. Let me take a look later today.

Are you using the same USB extensions from the previous Rift?

No, I bought new cables. One because Rift S is DisplayPort (rather than HDMI) and two I wanted new cables to test with, especially for 6 feet (the Rift S cable is longer than Rift CV1 so you don't need to extend as far).
