For runs under 25', a good quality HDMI cable will do just fine. 25-50' is getting into the questionable ranges - so use a known high quality cable, or switch to powered HDMI-over-cat5 extenders. Anything longer than that, highly recommend the extender solution - and in all cases, an extender product based on HDBaseT will be the most reliable solution. Monoprice has a single HDBaseT extender for
