actually I'm wrong, they make *Thunderbolt 2* cables up to 60 meters long. they do not make any Thunderbolt 3 cables that are longer than 2 meters for reasons that are not officially stated but probably related to the fact that the 2 meter cables already can't be certified

I'm pretty sure you could somehow bodge a 40 Gbps QSFP to a Thunderbolt connector but it's way beyond my skills, unfortunately

There are apparently plans for optical TB3 cables but I still haven't seen any available.
