I have the same 6ft HDMI cable and works fine although I use HDMI-DVI adapter to get it work, but I think thats a problem from GPU not giving enough power to hdmi port. For the USB I suppose I would be ok.

careful if using a 10m 3.0 cable, i got one (cable matters active with booster) for the fourth sensor and it only works when plugged into the inatec card and not the normal mobo ports.

No idea sorry, I've not extended the HMD leads apart from plugging them into my Vive Link box... 

Maybe take a look at this mid way down, it might help > https://www.oculus.com/blog/oculus-roomscale-extra-equipment/

I had issues with usb extension cables and went for active cables instead. No issues with those.
