Product Information

Full details

This kenable 007329 RF TV cable is designed for users needing a reliable, short-length coaxial connection for audio-visual equipment. Its primary benefit is the gold-flashed connectors ensuring a high-quality signal transfer, while a key caveat is its limited 0.5m length, suitable only for close proximity connections. The cable features male-to-male RF connectors and includes a female-to-female coupler for versatile linking.

FAQs

What is the main purpose of this TV cable?

This cable is designed for connecting audio-visual equipment that uses RF coaxial connections, such as TVs and set-top boxes, over a short distance.

Does the cable come with everything needed for connection?

Yes, it includes the 0.5m male-to-male RF cable and a female-to-female coupler for added versatility.

Can this cable be used for satellite TV installation?

While it uses the standard RF coaxial connector, its 0.5m length is typically too short for most satellite installations. It's better suited for connecting existing equipment over very short distances.

Is the gold plating on the connectors important?

Yes, the gold-flashed plating enhances conductivity for a better signal and provides resistance against corrosion, leading to a more stable and long-lasting connection.

What does '0.5 m' cable length mean?

It means the cable is 0.5 meters long, which is approximately 1.64 feet. This is a short cable ideal for connecting devices placed very close together.

How do I clean the connectors?

Gently wipe the connectors with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive materials that could damage the plating or the connector.

Troubleshooting

No signal or poor picture quality

Ensure both male connectors are securely screwed into the ports. Check that the coupler (if used) is also making a good connection. Try connecting directly without the coupler. Inspect the cable for any visible damage.

Cable does not fit the port

Verify that both the device port and the cable connector are standard RF coaxial types. Ensure you are not trying to connect to an F-type connector without an appropriate adapter.

Coupler is loose

Gently tighten the coupler onto the connected cables. If the connection remains loose, the coupler may be damaged and may need replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality signal transmission due to gold-plated connectors.
  • Includes a versatile female-to-female coupler.
  • Compact 0.5m length is convenient for short runs.
  • Durable construction with a 5mm diameter cable.
  • Aesthetically pleasing white color.

Cons

  • Limited 0.5m length restricts placement options.
  • Male-to-male connectors may require a coupler for some devices.
  • Not suitable for long-distance signal transmission.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the devices you intend to connect have compatible RF (coaxial) input/output ports.
  2. For direct connection, screw the male RF connectors of the cable firmly onto the corresponding ports of your devices (e.g., TV, set-top box, wall socket).
  3. If using the coupler, first connect one male end of the cable to the coupler, then connect the other male end of the cable to your device, or connect the coupler to your device and then to another cable.

Compatibility:

This cable is compatible with any device featuring standard RF coaxial female connectors, commonly found on televisions, VCRs, DVD recorders, set-top boxes (Freeview, Sky, Virgin Media), and aerial wall sockets.

Care:

  • Avoid kinking or sharply bending the cable, as this can damage the internal conductors.
  • Keep connectors clean. If they become dusty, gently wipe with a dry, soft cloth.
  • Store the cable away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight when not in use.
  • For installation, consider using cable clips (e.g., QS 005049) to secure the cable neatly and prevent accidental strain.
