Yes, I have all my cables extended.
Here are the USB cables I use for the sensor camera and HMD USB connections and [here is the HMDI coupler I use] (http://smile.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-Plated-Female-Coupler/dp/B00CJHXY0U?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00) plus a generic HDMI 6 feet cable from Monoprice I ordered some time ago (plus my 970 has a mini to norm HDMI dongle too). There is a USB extender cord packaged with the Rift that I use for the Xbox dongle.
Looks like all the dongles and extra cables work just fine.
I routed all the cables to the front so I can easily plug and unplug everything without crawling under the desk and scooting the PC around...
? I use acoupler, a standard HDMI cable, and a usb 3.0 extension.
All passive, no powered adapter
If your tv does not support HDR, just use the passthru feature of the PSVR breakout box. If it does support HDR, you can use a female/female coupler to connect the two cables when you want to play a game/watch a video that supports HDR.
This one works for me

I've read that others use this one:

I've extended all my sensors and my headset to give me full use of my computer room using only passive. Sounds like you've already got this to work but here's what I use in case anyone else wants to know. Cost me in total, like $45 and everything works perfectly.

I actually used this for a while but it's a bit cumbersome.
The simplest solution I found was a HDMI coupler like this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CJHXY0U/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
You basically just have two HDMI cables, one from TV to VR box, one from PS4 to VR box.
When you're done with VR, just unplug both cables from the back of the VR and connect them via the coupler.
Someone suggested an HDMI switch to you, and I don't think that's a good idea. From what I've read, the vast majority of switches do not support HDR.
I took the advice of a different redditor to solve this problem a while back, and in some ways his solution is less complicated. Simply get a female to female connector. One cord from your TV to the connector, and another cord from the connector to your PS4.
When you want to use your PSVR, completely remove the connector and plug both cords into the breakout box. I find it works quite well and it's much easier to get to the cords than it would be if I needed to reach the back of the PlayStation.
This is the connector I bought, and I can confirm it is HDR compatible. This solution is much cheaper too.
The HDMI cable did not work because it was not an active cable. Either get this plus this to maybe solve your problem or get this plus this. I have this cable coming tomorrow so I will know if it will work or not then. I am making a breakout box for my Rift.
