FAQs

What type of connectors does this cable have?

This cable has two male RF (coaxial) connectors. It also includes a female-to-female RF coupler for extended connectivity.

What is the length of the cable?

The cable length is 3 meters.

What is the purpose of the gold-flashed contacts?

Gold-flashed contacts provide a superior connection, ensuring better signal integrity and resistance to corrosion, leading to a more reliable and higher-quality signal transfer.

Can I use this cable for satellite TV?

This cable is designed for standard TV aerial (RF) signals. For satellite connections, a different type of coaxial cable (often RG6) with specific connectors may be required, depending on your satellite receiver and LNB.

Is the coupler essential for using the cable?

No, the coupler is an accessory. You can use the cable directly with its male-to-male connectors. The coupler provides flexibility to extend the cable or adapt connections.

How do I clean the connectors?

Gently wipe the connectors with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using any liquids or abrasive materials, as this could damage the gold plating or contacts.

What devices can I connect with this cable?

You can connect devices that have standard RF coaxial ports, such as TVs, set-top boxes (Freeview, etc.), DVD recorders, and TV aerials.

Troubleshooting

No signal or poor picture quality

Ensure both male RF connectors are securely screwed into the device ports. Check that the female-to-female coupler is also securely connected if used. Verify that the cable is connected to the correct RF input/output on your devices and that your aerial is properly positioned and connected.

Cable does not fit a port

Confirm that the port on your device is a standard RF coaxial connector. This cable features male RF connectors; if your device has a female RF port, you will need to use the included coupler or a different cable with a male connector. Ensure you are not trying to connect an RF cable to a different type of port (e.g., HDMI, SCART).

Intermittent signal loss

Check the cable for any visible damage, kinks, or stressed points. Ensure connectors are clean and fully tightened. If the problem persists, try replacing the cable, as internal damage may not be visible.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality signal transfer due to gold-flashed connectors.
  • Versatile connectivity with the included female-to-female coupler.
  • Durable coaxial construction for reliable performance.
  • Aesthetically pleasing white finish.

Cons

  • Fixed 3-meter length may be too short for some installations.
  • Primarily for RF (coaxial) connections, not versatile for other cable types.
  • Male connectors may require adapters for some specific devices.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up the kenable 005045 TV cable, simply screw the male RF connectors onto the corresponding male or female ports on your television, set-top box, or aerial. Ensure a firm but not overtightened connection. If using the coupler, attach it to one end of the cable and then connect your desired device or extension cable to the coupler.

Compatibility: This cable is compatible with all devices featuring standard RF coaxial (aerial) input/output ports. This includes most televisions, Freeview boxes, Sky boxes, VCRs, DVD recorders, and outdoor/indoor aerials.

Care: To maintain optimal performance, keep the cable free from kinks and sharp bends. Regularly check the connectors for dust or debris and gently clean with a dry cloth if necessary. Avoid exposing the cable to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures.
