CCGX to MPPT connection over 40 ft

Hello, I have the CCGX and the BMV 712 installed in the front of a Class A, and the Victron MPPT 100/30 and Multiplus 3000 installed in the rear next to the batteries. The cable run between the two locations is about 40 FT. Everything is connected and working, but I don't know of a way to connect the MPPT to the CCGX. I believe the longest VE.Direct cable is 30 FT. Is there another way for me to get the MPPT connected to the CCGX?


Thanks in advance for any help!

You can try to use a VE.direct to USB cable and an active USB extender.

Thanks Matthias, I'll try that. I did try a VE.direct to USB, then USB to CAT5 extender. I did not work but it wasn't powered.
