Product Information

Full details

This guide is for users with ADSL broadband connections seeking to maximize their internet speed and stability. The key benefit is a significantly faster and more reliable internet connection compared to standard phone cables. A potential caveat is that its benefits are most pronounced on faster broadband connections (2Mb/s or higher) and ADSL2+. The Kenable 007939 is a 5-meter black ADSL High Speed Modem Cable designed to connect your modem/router to your telephone wall socket, capable of transmitting data up to 100Mbits/sec, which is up to 10 times faster than a normal telephone cable, reducing transmission errors and ensuring you are not slowed down by your cabling.

FAQs

What is the main advantage of using this high-speed modem cable?

The main advantage is its ability to transmit data up to 10 times faster than a standard telephone cable, leading to significantly higher internet speeds and reduced transmission errors, especially on fast broadband connections.

Is this cable compatible with my standard phone line?

Yes, it uses standard RJ-11 connectors and is designed to connect your modem/router to your telephone wall socket, supporting both analogue and digital (DSL/ISDN) applications.

What internet speeds is this cable recommended for?

It is highly recommended for fast broadband connections (2Mb/s or higher) and particularly for ADSL2+ connections to ensure you achieve the fastest possible internet speeds.

How long is the cable?

The cable is 5 meters in length.

Can I use this cable for my VoIP phone service?

While the cable is designed for modem data transmission, it uses standard RJ-11 connectors. If your VoIP phone service uses an RJ-11 connection and you have a separate line or modem, it may work, but its primary function is for high-speed internet data.

What does '26 AWG' mean?

AWG stands for American Wire Gauge. A lower AWG number indicates a thicker wire. 26 AWG is a standard size for high-speed data transmission cables like this one, balancing performance and flexibility.

Does the cable have strain relief?

Yes, it features snagless moulded strain relief on the connectors, which provides added strength and flexibility, protecting the cable from damage at the connection points.

Troubleshooting

No internet connection or intermittent connection.

Ensure both ends of the RJ-11 connectors are securely plugged into the modem/router and the wall socket. Try a different wall socket if available. Check if the cable is damaged; if so, replace it.

Slow internet speeds despite a high-speed plan.

Verify that your internet service plan is indeed high-speed (2Mb/s or higher) and compatible with ADSL2+. Ensure the cable is fully inserted. Test with a shorter or different compatible cable to rule out cable issues.

High number of transmission errors reported by modem.

This cable is designed to reduce errors. If errors persist, check for interference from other electrical devices or consider a higher-grade shielded cable if the environment is particularly noisy. Ensure the cable is not physically damaged.

Cable feels stiff or difficult to bend.

While designed for flexibility, avoid forcing sharp bends. If it feels excessively stiff, ensure you are not damaging the internal conductors.
