FAQs

What is the main benefit of this cable over a standard phone cable?

This cable is designed to transmit data up to 10 times faster (100Mbits/sec) than a standard phone cable, significantly improving speeds and reducing errors on high-speed broadband connections like ADSL 2+.

Will this cable improve my internet speed if I have a slow broadband plan?

The most significant improvements are seen on broadband connections of 2Mb/s or higher. While it may offer a slight improvement over a damaged standard cable, its primary benefit is for faster connections.

What type of connectors does this cable use?

It uses standard RJ11 male connectors on both ends, which are commonly found on ADSL modems, routers, and telephone wall sockets.

Is this cable suitable for ISDN connections?

Yes, the cable supports both analogue and digital (DSL/ISDN) applications.

How long is the cable?

The cable is 2 meters in length.

What does 'AWG wire size: 26' mean?

AWG (American Wire Gauge) size 26 refers to the thickness of the wire. A lower AWG number indicates a thicker wire, and 26 AWG is suitable for the data transmission rates this cable supports.

Can I use this cable for my landline phone?

While it will technically work for a standard phone, its design and higher data transmission capability are optimized for broadband modems. Using a standard phone cable for your landline is usually sufficient.

Troubleshooting

No internet connection after connecting the cable

Ensure both RJ11 connectors are fully seated in the modem/router and the wall socket. Check that the modem/router is powered on and properly configured. Try plugging the cable into a different wall socket if available.

Slow internet speeds despite a fast broadband plan

Verify that your broadband plan is indeed 2Mb/s or higher, as this cable's benefits are most pronounced at these speeds. Ensure the cable is not damaged and that the modem/router is functioning correctly. Test with a shorter or different known-good cable if possible.

Intermittent connection drops

Check the physical connections at both ends for security. Inspect the cable for any visible signs of damage. Ensure the cable is not routed near sources of electrical interference.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly faster than standard telephone cables for broadband.
  • Reduces transmission errors for a more stable connection.
  • Robust build quality with strain relief for durability.
  • Compatible with a wide range of DSL and ISDN modems.
  • Ideal for maximizing ADSL 2+ speeds.

Cons

  • Benefits are most noticeable on higher-speed broadband connections (2Mb/s+).
  • Standard RJ11 connectors may not fit all niche devices.
  • White color may not match all home decor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Simply plug one RJ11 male connector into your ADSL modem or router and the other RJ11 male connector into your telephone wall socket. Ensure a firm connection at both ends.

Compatibility: This cable is compatible with all modem speeds and supports both analogue and digital (DSL/ISDN) applications. It uses standard RJ11 connectors, common on most modems, routers, and telephone sockets.

Care: Keep the cable clean and free from dust. Avoid sharp bends or kinks, especially near the connectors, to preserve the integrity of the internal wiring. The snagless strain relief offers protection against excessive pulling.
