How to lengthen a computer?

Imagine the situation, I want to shove the system unit somewhere under the table, but at the same time I want to have free access to the rear panel with its connectors, power and reboot buttons. So the thought came to my mind, is there some type of extension cord - a kind of box with connectors repeating those on the back panel, well, connect it all to this box with cords, for example, it will be fixed nearby, and the system unit will be under the table, so that as a result I could safely reach the connectors without getting under the table and without pulling out the system unit? Maybe such solutions already exist?

There is another solution)))
Mount the power supply and motherboard without a case directly on the table.
Options - from fastening with screws inside the finished table, to ordering in a furniture workshop.
It all depends on your imagination and will cost quite inexpensively.
Something like this for example:

An old story - then only remote controls for TVs appeared in large quantities, and they began to be installed on old TVs too. A man came to the workshop - he asked how much it costs to install a remote control on his TV. They named him a price. "No, for that kind of money I'll get up off the couch myself!"
I have not seen universal solutions for your question (it turns out expensive and no one needs it), but in place you can assemble anything from extension cords and adapters.

If the BIOS supports the Wake On LAN function and there is a home router, then you can put it stupidly under the table back to front. In this case, the power button will not be needed, it will be possible to turn on the computer from the mobile.

Hmm ... you can extend the USB. You can extend the HDMI. You can probably lengthen the power supply, mouse connectors, keyboards (PS / 2, if they are of course) and sound connectors. The network card can be extended. But how to extend the DVI connector for the monitor - I can’t imagine this. Although there are probably adapters, but I'm afraid the price of the issue will be - like another computer :)

There are extension cords for all sorts of connectors, you need USB, keyboard and mouse, other connectors such as LAN, DVI or VGA, audio, as a rule, is connected once and does not twitch constantly. ALI has remote buttons for power and reset, they cost mere pennies. If your hands grow from the right place, you can do it yourself.

Yes, this is nonsense, all connectors will not be needed every day, unless it is a stand. In fact, only Power and USB are needed. There are no problems with USB hubs of any modifications, but you can turn it on yourself (well, everything is very simple there).
There are no ready-made solutions to the problem.
