Display MoreNothing has changed regarding that Ethernet connection since day 1.
We always recommend the original KEMPER cable.
And if you go third party, make sure it meets the cable specs mentioned in the manual.
And if you are not sure about the specs of your cable, then use Power over Ethernet to be safe. PoE equipment needs to support mode A. Don't use equipment for mode B since it could damage the Remote. Since the mode of PoE gear is not always easy to identify we maintain a white list and a black list in our manuals for your convenience. The latest list can be found in the Addendum.
But technically PROFILER and Remote havn't changed.
Oh ok, I read this briefly and when I saw it was put in 8.7, I thought maybe some internal code was changed in order for this to work:
Enhanced List of Tested PoE Equipment
The PROFILER and PROFILER Remote communicate with each other via an ethernet cable. The cable included in
the PROFILER Remote package with its Neutrik® etherCON® cable connector carrier has been carefully selected
and is perfectly suited for this purpose.
Ethernet cables in excess of 10m (30ft) might require a Power over Ethernet Injector (PoE Injector). A PoE switch
will even let you connect multiple Remotes to one PROFILER. Supported are IEEE standard 802.3af-2003 as well as
802.3at-2009 mode A.
✓ Be aware that only mode A can be used; mode B is not functional!
We have extended the list of tested PoE injectors and switches. The included devices were either tested by our
engineering department, or reported as functional by users. We are also adding a blacklist of devices which are not
compatible and must therefore not be used.
Here is a list of equipment we have tested successfully:
PoE injectors:
• TP-LINK® TL-POE 150S
•
PoE switches:
• TP-LINK® TL-SG1008P (8 port gigabit switch with 4 port PoE)
• Allnet® ALL8085 Switch (8 Port 10/100TX)
• Intellinet 8-Port Fast Ethernet POE+ Switch (available with 19’’ rackmount)
The following PoE devices were reported as functional by users:
• TP-LINK® TL-SG1005P (5 port gigabit switch with 4 port PoE+)
• Trendnet TPE-TG44G POE+ switch
• Cudy POE200 30W Gigabit PoE+
The following PoE injectors are not compatible and must not be used:
• Swissonic 466331
• Ubiquiti Networks U-POE-af
• Ubiquiti Networks POE-48-24W-G
✓ If you are using a PoE switch, connect the PROFILER to its PoE ethernet sockets, as well as the Remote(s).
