Review on Cable Matters 2-in-1 VR Extension Cable 🔌 (Black, 5m/16.4 Feet) - DisplayPort and USB Extension Cable by Andrew Dickens

I bought this cable to use with the Rift S but it doesn't work. The problem, as you can see with a lot of people if you search the web, is that even with high end video cards (mine) the cables are too long to get the signal through computers. They try to fix this by providing an active chipset that you plug the USB cable into (which works), but they don't do the same for the display port cable (doesn't work). I ended up buying a $20 active displayport extender (wired too, find out) and it started working, but unfortunately I had to have an extra displayport cable on hand because the extender is female . In general, there are many problems to make work and usually it does not work by itself. Please just turn on both cables. A USB power line is probably enough for both signals, and I don't need to shell out another $30 for two USB cables/chargers, a DisplayPort cable, and your active extender.
