4K with ARC hasn't been around for a long time and if you mean "for years" equals 'a few years', that isn't good enough. How long were these cables? I need to go more than 50'.
It is not the 4K that is the issue, Optical cables can carry that (or 8K with correct chipsets) long distances, it is the ARC/eARC that has the distance limitation. ARC/eARC travels on the copper feeds in an AOC cable without any added signal boosters and that is what has the 10 meter limit (YMMV with your equipment selection).
