When the length of the communications cable between the aGate X and the aPower X is less 
than 98ft (30m), a communications cable can be used to connect. 

 

Both the communications cable connection and 20V power supply must be used in 
conjunction when the communications cable length between aGate X and aPower X is longer 
than 98ft (30m).
