Product Information

Full details

This Kenable 007411 telephone cable is designed for users needing to connect standard BT devices to wall sockets. Its primary benefit is a reliable, straight-wired connection for household telephones. A minor caveat is its specific 4-wire configuration, which is standard for BT but may not be universally compatible with all non-BT phone systems. This 2-meter white cable features gold contacts for enhanced signal quality and a flat, unobtrusive design.

FAQs

What type of devices is this cable compatible with?

This cable is compatible with most standard UK BT telephones, answering machines, fax machines, and other devices that use a 4-wire BT plug.

Will this cable work with my broadband modem?

Generally, no. This cable is for telephone lines. Broadband modems typically use RJ11 connectors or specific DSL ports which may require a different type of cable.

What does 'straight wired' mean?

Straight wired means that pin 1 on one connector is connected directly to pin 1 on the other, pin 2 to pin 2, and so on. This is standard for most modern BT telephones.

Can I use this cable for international phone lines?

No, this cable is specifically designed for UK BT telephone connections and will not work with international phone sockets or systems.

How do I clean the connectors?

Gently wipe the gold contacts with a dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive materials, as this could damage the plating.

Is the cable suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE)?

No, this is a telephone cable designed for voice communication and cannot be used for data transmission technologies like PoE.

What is the warranty period for this cable?

Specific warranty information is typically provided by the retailer. Please check the product packaging or the retailer's website for details.

Troubleshooting

No dial tone or connection.

Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged into the BT socket and the telephone device. Try testing with another known working telephone cable or device.

Intermittent crackling or poor call quality.

Check the gold contacts on both plugs for dirt or corrosion. Gently clean them with a dry, lint-free cloth. Ensure the cable is not damaged or excessively bent.

Device not recognised by the phone line.

Verify that the device uses a standard 4-wire BT plug. This cable is straight-wired and may not be compatible with older or non-standard telephone systems that require crossover wiring.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the BT telephone socket on your wall and the corresponding port on your telephone device.
  2. Ensure both the socket and the device's port are clear of debris.
  3. Plug one 4-wire BT male connector into the wall socket.
  4. Plug the other 4-wire BT male connector into the telephone device.
  5. Test the connection by making a call.

Care:
