Type C Hub from server rack

[skkler]

I currently found a 2U Case that has 2 mini ITX spots. And i was wanting to put this in my wall rack for my kids, but im curious, is there anyway i can run 1 cable to a hub that will provide internet, video, usb ect. To the hub at their desk?? Itll all be in the same room.

Yes something like that. But all the ones im finding already gave a cable connected and isnt long enough. Something like this would be ideal

im pretty sure the max length for usb 4 is 2 meters so you should be able to jerry rig something together, failing that, there are powered usb hubs that cost a pretty penny

thunderbolt has a max length of 2M and usb3  10gb/s has a max length of 5M with active cables. either your rack will be uncomfortably close or you will need to run one usb3 cable along side a displayport cable.
