Do not exceed supplied cable lengths between indoor unit and smart port.
Extension of this length may create loss of communication between the PCB
and/or wired control Wi-Fi Smart Port. We recommend the following wired
controller cable length maximums:
Wiring Specifications
Wiring type Size Total Length
Shielded PVC or
Cable
0.75mm2≤ 20m
1.5mm2≤ 50m
NOTE
In order to avoid potential interference, it is recommended that the Wi-Fi
Smart Port is mounted inside the living space, as close to the internet router
as is practical. It is not recommended to install the Smart Port inside the
wall cavity or roof space. If possible, avoid items which can cause potential
interference in direct line between the modem and the Smart Port.
