FAQs

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

The main benefit is a faster and more stable internet connection by allowing your modem to transmit data at higher speeds (up to 100Mbits/sec) with fewer errors compared to standard telephone cables.

Is this cable compatible with my standard ADSL connection?

Yes, this cable is compatible with all modem speeds, including standard ADSL and the faster ADSL2+ connections. It also supports analogue and digital (DSL/ISDN) applications.

How is this cable different from a regular phone cable?

This cable is constructed with Category 5 structured cabling and 26 AWG wire, enabling it to transmit data up to 10 times faster than a normal phone cable, specifically designed to handle the demands of high-speed broadband.

What does 'ADSL2+' mean in relation to this cable?

ADSL2+ is a newer, faster standard for DSL internet. This cable is optimized to ensure you get the best performance from your ADSL2+ connection and reduce errors.

Can I use this cable for fiber optic or cable internet?

No, this cable is specifically designed for DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) internet connections that use telephone lines, such as ADSL and ADSL2+. It is not suitable for fiber optic or cable internet services.

What is the AWG wire size and why is it important?

AWG stands for American Wire Gauge. A lower AWG number, like 26 in this cable, indicates a thicker wire, which generally means better signal quality and performance, especially over longer distances or at higher speeds.

How long is the cable?

The cable is 1 meter in length.

Troubleshooting

Internet connection is still slow or unstable after installing the cable.

Ensure the cable is firmly connected at both the modem/router and the wall socket. Verify that your broadband service is 2Mb/s or higher, as the primary benefits are seen at these speeds. Test with a different, known-good RJ11 cable to rule out other equipment issues.

The cable doesn't fit the modem or wall socket.

The cable uses standard RJ11 connectors. Check that your modem/router and wall socket are designed for RJ11 connections. If a different connector type is present, an adapter may be required, or this cable may not be suitable for your specific setup.

Physical damage to the cable or connectors.

Inspect the cable for any visible signs of damage, such as cuts, frayed wires, or bent pins on the connectors. If damage is found, replace the cable immediately to prevent further issues or safety concerns.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly increases internet speed for ADSL/ADSL2+ connections.
  • Reduces data transmission errors, leading to a more stable connection.
  • Robust construction with strain relief for enhanced durability.
  • Backward compatible with older DSL/ISDN and analogue systems.
  • Easy plug-and-play setup with standard RJ11 connectors.

Cons

  • Benefits are most pronounced on broadband connections of 2Mb/s or higher.
  • A 1-meter length may be too short for some setups.
  • Primarily designed for ADSL; may not offer benefits for non-DSL internet types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Kenable ADSL High Speed Modem Cable features standard RJ11 male connectors on both ends. To set up, simply plug one end into your ADSL modem or router's telephone port and the other end into your telephone wall socket. Ensure a firm connection at both ends.

Compatibility: This cable is universally compatible with all modem speeds and supports analogue, DSL, and ISDN applications. It is particularly recommended for ADSL2+ connections and any broadband service of 2Mb/s or higher.

Care: To maintain the cable's performance and longevity, avoid sharp bends, kinks, or excessive pulling. Keep the connectors clean and free from dust. The moulded strain relief at each connector helps prevent damage from accidental tugs.
