You are not going to have a problem with the long USB cable with the
repeater.
Didn't the person who used the long runs after the cheap component
splitter say he was watching SD on a 640x480 projector? At least I
think he said he said he was feeding 720p to the projector but that
exceeded the resolution of the projector.
If your setup is HD, you may want better.
