4.5m is the max.
The fibre optic sounds interesting.
You can also do a physical layer repeater - they are already for sale (£45
GBP approx. $68) and these (according the manufacturer) can be cascaded for
"up to 236 feet" (70m -ish) from the host...
But, if you have *no* fan in your supercomputer - what's the problem ;-)
