Is It Possible To Control The Two Types Of Feetech Servo At The Same Time?

I noticed there are two skills available for controlling Feetech servos. Is it possible to run both skills simultaneously over the same COM port to the same adapter board?

Could someone provide the specifications for this cable? I would like to purchase a longer one to accommodate my setup. I found the information myself in the community...
