Thunderbolt 3 USB C cable.

I am trying to find a 3 meter length of Thunderbolt 3 USB to connect a Lacie 2big to my Mac. I need three meters to avoid lots of cable on my desktop. 2 meters won't run through the cable tunnels. Any ideas where I can find a decent supplier?

It's possible no one makes one because of performance degradation.

Thanks. Really helpful. Guess I'll have to drill some more holes in the desk!
