- enough to know i shouldnt touch things i know nothing about ....
I am part way through an install and changing my current 12v conversion, to one which doesn't have to use the 12v/48v stabilised power supplies It's been a useful read just to consider and focus me on different options.
I am considering installing more than one pass through (RJ45 AND 12v power) in a couple of different locations, near the front driver side and near the rear passenger side, with the internal cabling being set up like a mini network, all data cables leading back to a 12v permanently fixed router (also considering doing the same with the 12v supply, so as to keep it separate from the motorhome 12v system). As the router has several feeds this seems to be an option, although probably overkill, but will allow me to carry just one 3m lead for the external data and the same for the 12v power to the dish. I am doing away with the starlink provided cables and router and not using 12v and 48v power supplies.
I am pretty close to testing before actually installing just to make sure everything works.
