"Question to experts We have. The modem Huawei E3272 Megaphone 4G
Zyxel Keenetic 4G III Router supporting E3272.
A task. In the village house, place the modem in the attic in the focus of the dish antenna.

The question is in choosing a cable. Do I need an active extension cable with an amplifier
eg

For interest written in Keenetic. Answer: "- the usual non-active extension cable is not necessary categorically, sometimes problems are already due to 1.5 meter passive extension
- active power - such as such:

Therefore, the active power should be used in conjunction with active YUSB hub that has its nourishment.
The most rational solution would be lengthening Ethernet, considering the total cost of additional accessories (extension YUSB, active hub) and still some uncertainty about how it will work,.
Those. the main router is close to YUSB modem (or even with it) where reception is best, and from it has an Ethernet cable is "trigger" for an additional inexpensive rotuter (its value will be close to the total cost of the active extension YUSB and active YUSB hub) as an access point for distribution in the right place.
