Did I see where up to 4 Remote Controllers can be daisy chained to one Profiler? If so how
thanks

I think there is a mention about using network hubs in the Remote discussions.
-
You'll need to use a PoE (Power over Ethernet) switch. not just any old hub/switch though.
-
Makes perfect sense over CAT5...thanks for the clarification
-
So would this be to allow sound guys doing the switching when live stage?
-
Yes indeed

can you explain me it please?thank you
-
It's a newish standard, best read here.

The switches aren't too expensive either
-
Yes, i know it but i would Like to know How it could be used in the pedalboard
thank you
-
You can connect the profiler plus several remotes to a switch and all remotes will be able to operate the profiler.
-
Ok, i was thinking it could be possible to supply other pedals
-
Do you mean stomp pedals or extra switches and expression pedals ?
-
Yess, I was thinking about stomp boxes
-
Did someone already do a wireshark capture of the interaction between remote and KPA? Since a switch does not forward packets to any other switch port than the conncected target, broadcasting traffic might be a problem. A classic hub without "intelligence" always repeats any ethernet frame out of every port, which would be better in this case. However there are no hubs with POE afaik.

I guess you'd have to design some sort of DIY solution to convert that power to the required voltage and current for individual pedals. Wouldn't be as simple as running a wire from one of those boxes... Then again, maybe it could be!

I agree I've only seen switches so I don't know how we would get round this. I guess we have to wait until we get the remote in our hands so we can see what it is actually doing.

Simply use your hub, and add a "PoE injector" after the hub. But i presume that CK team will crypt the ethernet/IP payload to avoid reverse engineering
