Determining Best Location of Control Boxes

As of right now I've got my machine assembled but have run into an issue with the lengths of the cables running from the control box to the steppers. I am using a Gecko G541 on my 1.5 meter on the X-Axis by 1 meter on the Y-Axis machine with 500 millimeters of Z action in a Landscape Orientation. At present my cables for X and Y are in excess of 10 feet long and 7 feet long for the Z- axis.

Does anyone here have any ideas as too how I can reduce the length of my cables?
