powered ethernet hub for kemper emote

YaketyYak · Feb 22nd 2016

Hi there ! I'm having a problem with Cat5-cable with my Kemper remote.
I use normally pro snake Cat5e Cable 10m and it works fine.
So i need longer cable for bigger venues or festivals and i bought pro snake Cat5e Cable 15m
but it doesn't work as well as it should (darker display on remote)
So what would be a good solution for this problem, powered ethernet hub ?
Or better cable ? Also having a problem with loose connection with Kemper ethernet input...

cheers

Welcome. you need a power injector for cat5 cables with the length of 15m.

It actually seems the issue is in the cable's diameter rather than in its working class. The thinner, the less it can properly supply power.
I'd advise you to use the original Kemper cable + the power injector Ingo was suggesting.
Note: your 10-m cable might do the trick as an extension

Is anyone using a power injector, hoping someone clould suggest a good one that really works in action ?

I have this one: TP-LINK-TL-PoE150S
It is recommendet in the manual and it works with my 15 m and my 20 m Ethernet-cable
