VE.direct betwee MPPT and Multiplus GX

I have a MPPT VE.Can and a Multiplus-II GX installed. But we dont need a Color Control, or a Cerbo. Can I connect the MPPT and the Multi via VE.direct cable? I want to get the information from the MPPT on the virtual Control panel.
What is the max length og the direct cable, in case the answer is yes?
Many thanks in advance.

@Marigothill

Yes, you can connect the MPPT to the MultiPlus via VE.Direct. There is no point in a CCGX or Cerbo GX anyway, because you can only have one GX device in a system, which is your MultiPlus-II GX.

The longest VE.Direct cable you can buy is 10m.

There is also a 10m Cable (ASS030530310). Maybe itˋs new.

You're right. I didn't know but found it in the official price list.
