Oh.

Didn't know that was such a thing.

Probably not then if it's something special required.

Poopers. :/

Let's put it this way. I purchased a 5 metre HDMI 2.1 cable rated by the HDMI Forum for up to 8K@60Hz and I had issues when I used it at 4K@120Hz, like no signal on my OLED issues. Even at 60Hz I had issues, though not all the time as I did at 120Hz. Even reducing the colour gamut down from 10bit to 8bit only helped moderately. If I dropped it down to 1440p it worked. I returned the cable and got another and same thing. I returned that one too and purchased a 3 metre cable and it worked perfectly.

Most cables that long are rated for HDMI 2.0, which is 18Gbps. You really need HDMI 2.1, which is 48Gbps. The only way you'll get that at that length is fibre optic, and even then you may need an active HDMI cable. Just make sure it is rated for HDMI 2.1 by the HDMI Forum (it will have a QR code on the box that you can scan to see what it's rating is, if the cable is any good that is) if you do go that route.

This is an example of the QR code to see if your cable is truly rated for what it is advertised for.
