Extension Leads

Extension Leads

It is a common fact of the telephony industry, often because customers are in-home setups or offices where there is only a small amount of space, that the leads supplied with products and hardware are rather short. While this may be okay if the place you are setting up a computer, telephone, or another piece of equipment is relatively small, it’s not so good if the placement of your plug socket, modem, or phone connection in the wall is beyond the reach of the average cable.

As a leading supplier and retailer of all manner of telephony equipment and accessories, fortunately, we stock a variety of extension leads to help make it easier to install your equipment without having to use them in compromised or uncomfortable positions.

Some Considerations to Make When Buying Extension Leads

When it comes to buying extension leads, even from the carefully selected collection we have here at PMC Telecom, there are some considerations you may want to make to ensure you are investing wisely.

Length of Cable

The first consideration you need to make is probably the most obvious and that is the length of the extension lead. Not all extension leads come in one standard size. Therefore, you need to measure the distance between where you are placing or would like to place your computer, phone, or other device and the modem, router, or even phone socket.

Although many of the telephone and other extension leads we sell here at PMC Telecom are hardly the most expensive accessories in the world, it will still be frustrating and a waste of time (particularly if you are buying for your office or remote working setup) if you buy one that doesn’t cover the distance you need. We sell extension leads in the following sizes – 2m, 3m, 5m, 7.5m, and 10m. So, it shouldn’t be too hard to find the right length of extension cable for your needs and current setup.

Branded or Unbranded?

Another consideration you need to make is whether you want to take a chance with extension leads made by unfamiliar brands or that are generic and unbranded or stick to a brand you know and trust or at least one that has a good reputation within the industry. Ultimately, what you decide is up to you. However, in our opinion, it is better to choose a branded option, like the Konftel and Tacima extension leads we have for sale here.

What’s the difference? Well, not all unbranded items are always going to be bad. However, when you choose a branded item, even when it’s just an extension lead, you are investing in that brand as well as the product itself. As most brands survive or fail on their reputation, branded items are far more likely to be efficient, robust, and generally made to a higher standard than the corner-cutting, lower-priced options.

Besides, thanks to our position within the industry and the strong relationships we have developed in that time with manufacturers, we can offer truly competitive prices on all the important accessories, including extension leads, you need.

We Cater to All Budgets

Following on from the point above and opening it up further, at PMC Telecom we appreciate the fact that as our customer base is diverse, not everyone has the same needs or budgets for items like extension leads. For instance, we fully understand that a home phone user or an individual just looking to adequately connect their mode, router, or another device to their internet or phone connection won’t have the same budget as a business owner or office manager.

That is why we have tried to ensure that all price points and budgets are covered with our list of products.

Why Choose PMC Telecom?

Okay, so you know you need extension leads and you even know what length to buy. You may still be unsure why you should choose PMC Telecom over the other options out there. While it would not be our place to say anything negative about our competitors, what we can attest to is our time spent working in the industry. We have been in business since 1991, and have established and maintained an industry-leader position ever since.

This is largely due, we believe, to the fact that we don’t compromise on quality for the sake of profits. We have gained a trusted reputation as a retailer that provides value for money.
