Frequently Asked Questions
Can I operate a server 360 feet away without external power at the server location?
Yes, this USB remote unit requires no external power—it draws power over the CAT5e cable itself, simplifying installation in remote or hard-to-reach locations.
What is phantom power, and how does it enable cable-only operation?
Phantom power means the remote unit receives electrical power through the network cable itself, eliminating the need for a separate power outlet at the server location.
Is CAT5e cabling sufficient for 360 feet, or do I need Cat6?
CAT5e is adequate for this distance; Cat6 or higher provides additional performance margin but is not required.
