Hi,

Would it change anything if I use a 32ft (10 meter) coax cable compared to a 10ft (3 meter)?

If I will use the 10ft cable, it will be like 3ft (1 meter) from the TV, Soundbar, and other electronics, but I’m not sure if it matters…

The main question is if such a long cable will reduce internet speed.

Thank you

    The latency and signal attenuation from an extra 7 meters of cable would cripple even the most latency insensitive tasks.

    You’d never know the difference, there are other slow downs that cause real latency issues.

    I have a 50ft homerun of RG6 Quad coax from demarc > modem giving excellent ping, download speed, and power stats since I installed it. Proper cable and attention to F-type fitting attachment will give trouble-free performance.
