Hoping to re-do my room with the computer farther away from 828x.
About 18-20 feet.
I have read this on MOTU support:
Maximum USB cable length
The maximum cable length MOTU recommends between a USB computer and USB interface is 5 meters (16.5 feet). Longer runs can be achieved through the use of powered USB hubs. For extremely long runs, MOTU has tested this USB CAT5 extender device, which allows USB runs of up to 100 feet.
Would an active USB extension cable act like a powered USB hub in this case?
What are the symptoms of it not working, audio drop outs, DP quitting a recording pass, or something more subtle that would come back and bite later?
USB active extension to 828x?
