When I started this installation, the TV that was brought to me wasn't even in development... (the floor guys and sheetrock guys took a year to finish)

Anyway, they brought me this really nice Pioneer plasma tv- a PDP-503MXE. This is the one with the separate media receiver... This is a TV in a bedroom, mounted above a fireplace...


The only inputs for this TV are from a special set of serial and parallel cable look-alikes with a weird pin configuration...

First question.... the cable is 8ft long- the required length is 20 feet. Anyone know offhand if Pioneer makes an extension for this (my distributor is closed so i can't ask him.... heh)
2) If there IS an extension, will there be a lot of signal loss associated with it?

I want to put the media receiver on the fireplace mantle, under the tv, but the customer will balk at that....
