Why not SPI speeds over a long cable?   Gigabit Ether net is a good
example.   It is built into almost all computers and can be 1GHz over 100
meters of cheap unshielded wire.

They use only a few basic tricks, none of which add much to the cost

10/8 encoding to guarantee a minimum number of bit transitions even if the
data is a long string of zeroes.
Clock mixed with data so the receiver clock can be cheap non-precision
Differential to resister common mode noise
galvanic isolation to prevent ground loops

There is also 10GHz Ethernet but it is not built into common consumer
equipment but even 10G data rates are easy to pushover 100 feet using just
RJ45 jacks

The trick is to NOT think about how hard it is to push 10Gbps over a wire.
  But to think how easy it is to build a microwave data link when you can
use wire in place of a clear air path.  No need for antennas and you can
use way ultra-low power.

even for the case of SPI, think in terms is radio transmission lines and
the job becomes easier.
