Best cable for tethering R5 to M2 Max MacBook Pro running Capture One

Tether Tools cables are just not hacking it. Way too many disconnects. On a recent shoot, my Digi Tech said she always uses Area 51 cables, but she'd noticed the cables possibly overheating and disconnecting with the M2 MacBook Pro. I shoot portraits and lifestyle, so on a typical lifestyle shoot, I may be shooting 2-5K images, so pushing a lot of data through that cable. What are your preferred cables in the 16' plus range (shooting lifestyle so handheld, moving around)? 

Thanks!

Yes, sorry I realize now I was not clear on that point.  Yes, keep the C connection into the camera but at the computer side convert to a USB A via an adapter or hub.

Do Tether Tools or others have baluns options, or is that something that I'd need to add in myself?
