HDMI at 4k HDR is ok up to about 10 metres so you should be ok.

We don't really recoomend 4K/HDR over 3m (5m possibly at a push) for normal (non optical) cables

If that's the HDMI lead then you would need to source your own cable.

I've run 4k 8bit 50Hz at over 10m on an 18Gb certified cable and it was fine. Not tried 10bit yet but in theory...

From SKY Q or other device ?
SKY Q seems to be quite sensitive to longer lengths (hence our recommendation)
