Slim Technical Specifications

ADSL Modem to Faceplate Connectivity

This cable connects your ADSL modem or router directly to an RJ-11 filtered faceplate. Because it is wired straight through, it maintains the correct signal path. The 3m length provides flexibility for router placement. However, it is not a standard Ethernet cable for PC-to-switch networking. The RJ-45 connector fits the modem port. The RJ-11 connector fits the telephone socket.

Flat Cable Design Benefits

The flat four-core cable is less bulky than round alternatives. This helps with routing under carpets or behind furniture. It can reduce cable clutter in tight spaces. However, flat cables are generally not shielded. You should verify if your setup requires shielded cable for interference protection. This is not specified for this product.

Connector Compatibility Details

The cable features a male RJ-45 connector and a male RJ-11 connector. You must confirm your modem has an RJ-45 port. Also, confirm your wall socket accepts an RJ-11 plug. This cable is not suitable for RJ-45-to-RJ-45 networking. It is specifically for ADSL connections. The connectors are moulded for strain relief.
