This is NOT competition Legal in the FIRST® Tech Challenge.

This 4 Channel Servo Extension via CAT6 lets you control up to four servos over a CAT6 cable. It boosts servo signals to allow for long-distance installations with jitter-free servo-motion and the rock-solid connectivity of a wired setup. It can control up to four servos at once, making it useful if you need to tidy up the wiring on your project. This product includes 1 Sending Board, 1 Receiving Board, and 4 servo extensions.

Compatibility

Ethernet Cables: While CAT6 is the recommended cable, the RJ45 connector this 4 Channel Servo Extension uses is also compatible with CAT5, CAT5e, CAT6a, and CAT8 cables.

RC Receivers: This 4 Channel Servo Extension is compatible with any receiver which uses a PWM signal. That's just about any receiver in the hobby or small-medium robotics industries.

Servos: This 4 Channel Servo Extension is compatible with any servo which uses a PWM signal. That's just about any servo in the hobby or small-medium robotics industries.

Actobotics Electronics: While this 4 Channel Servo Extension uses CAT6, it utilizes a newer protocol than Actobotics CAT6 boards (605102, 605103, and 902MSD), making them incompatible with each other.

Tech Tip

Both our Boosted Servo-Extension and 4 Channel Servo Extension via CAT6 offer a way to control your servos at longer distances while addressing any signal issues. Take your pick based on your projects’ needs!

  • The Signal-Boosting Servo Extension is great to have in your toolbox for any project. It performs excellently as a plug-and-play signal strength solution for a single channel.
  • The 4 Channel Servo Extension via CAT6 is a long-distance and multiple-servo wire management solution that maintains signal strength. It allows you to use whatever CAT6 cable length (up to 100 ft) suits your use-case! It also provides the option to power the servos from the extension’s receiving board, nearest the servos.
