Re: longest possible firewire cable
You can get a 33' 10 meter cable such as these

but if you need more than 35' you can use..

if you need firewire 800
http://www.gefen.com/kvm/product.jsp?prod_id=2196
you can even go 1650 feet with this one

Hope this helps, there are other brands that make these boxes, but a standard firewire repeater from anyone will be fine

Re: longest possible firewire cable
Note that Digidesign has a recommended maximum length for firewire cables. It may be bogus as I know I'm using one longer than their recommended max without problems; but still--the sky is likely not the limit.
Re: longest possible firewire cable
