Product Information

Full details

This 2-meter black extension cable from Kenable is designed for users needing to extend existing 4-pole 3.5mm audio/video connections, such as those found on certain cameras or Android boxes. Its key benefit is providing extra reach for devices that utilize all four poles for signals beyond stereo audio. A minor caveat is that compatibility is specific to 4-pole (TRRS) connectors, not standard 3-pole (TRS) audio jacks. Key features include its Plug and Play design, pure copper construction, and moulded strain relief for durability.

FAQs

What is a 4-pole 3.5mm jack?

A 4-pole (TRRS) 3.5mm jack typically carries Left Audio, Right Audio, Ground, and a fourth signal, which can be Video or a Microphone signal, depending on the device.

Will this cable work with my standard headphones?

This cable is designed for 4-pole (TRRS) connections. Standard headphones often use 3-pole (TRS) connectors. While it might fit, it may not function correctly or for all intended purposes.

Can I use this to extend a stereo headphone cable?

This cable is intended for devices with 4-pole outputs that carry signals beyond stereo audio. It is not specifically designed for extending standard stereo headphone outputs.

What does 'Plug and Play' mean for this cable?

It means the cable requires no software installation or complex setup. You simply connect it between your devices, and it should work immediately if both devices are compatible.

What is the cable made of?

The cable is made from pure copper for reliable performance, and it features nickel-plated connectors and moulded plugs with strain relief for durability.

What is the difference between 3-pole (TRS) and 4-pole (TRRS)?

A 3-pole (TRS) connector usually carries stereo audio (Left, Right, Ground). A 4-pole (TRRS) connector adds a fourth contact, often used for video or microphone signals, in addition to stereo audio and ground.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

Please refer to the retailer or manufacturer's specific warranty information, as it is not detailed in the product specifications provided.

Troubleshooting

No audio or video signal received

Verify that both ends of the cable are securely connected. Ensure the device is using a 4-pole (TRRS) connection and that the source device is functioning correctly. Try connecting the original cable without the extension to confirm functionality.

Audio or video is intermittent or distorted

Check for any damage to the cable or connectors. Ensure the connectors are clean. If the issue persists, the cable may be faulty, or there might be interference; try moving the cable away from power sources.

Only audio works, but not video/voice

Confirm that the source device and the connection type explicitly support the transmission of video or voice via the 4th pole. This cable provides the physical connection, but device compatibility is essential.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extends the reach of 4-pole TRRS cables.
  • Supports audio, video, and voice signals.
  • Durable construction with strain relief.
  • Plug and Play for easy setup.
  • Pure copper conductors for reliable signal.

Cons

  • Only compatible with 4-pole (TRRS) connectors, not 3-pole (TRS).
  • Not suitable for standard stereo-only audio extension.
  • Video signal quality may vary based on source device.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This cable is designed for Plug and Play functionality. Simply connect the male 3.5mm plug into the existing 4-pole female socket of your device or cable, and connect your 4-pole female device or cable to the female 3.5mm socket on this extension cable.

Compatibility:

  • This cable is specifically designed for 4-pole (TRRS) 3.5mm jacks. It will NOT function correctly with standard 3-pole (TRS) audio-only connectors for all functions.
  • Ensure both the source and destination devices are compatible with 4-pole TRRS connections (carrying left audio, right audio, ground, and a third signal like video or microphone).

Care:

  • Store the cable in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
  • Avoid sharp bends or kinks, which can damage the internal conductors.
  • Clean connectors gently with a dry, lint-free cloth if they appear dirty. Avoid using liquids.
