What active USB extension cable works with Apple Silicon Macs?

I have an electronics workbench that I need to connect via USB to the new Mac Studio on my desk. I have a 30' active USB extension feeding a hub on the electronics bench that works flawlessly with my old setup, but the Apple silicon doesn't seem to get along with it. Searching various forums it seems like USB compatibility is unfortunately a somewhat common issue with the newer chips.


Can anyone recommend a setup that will work with a Mac Studio that will let me connect my USB devices 25-30 feet away?

Mac Studio, macOS 15.0
