The proprietary cable is just cat6 twisted pair inside, running standard
Ethernet. What I'm not certain of is whether the PoE is the same between
units. My Dishy is round, so I can't test to confirm. I suspect it's
essentially the same proprietary PoE setup, but don't have a source to
confirm. Keep us posted on what you choose and how well it works
