+1 for lindy.com.au. You get what you pay for. I have a variety of active extensions and cables. Still got them to date. Some are over 10 years old. At the end of the day you still need to be aware of corrosion and dew with your gear but if you look after it then it will go the distance. On the scope side I still have my hitechastro mount hub pro (the very first iteration). It's a must for USB and power to minimise cables between your laptop and everything else. In my case from home I'm under a veranda on a outdoor setting about 7m from the pier. I have two daisychained active USB extensions going to the mount hub pro and one power line.
