Description

The CABLE (Convert ANT to BLE) is a revolutionary stand alone device which converts ANT+ sensor products into industry standard Bluetooth Smart connections.
The ANT+ data is then available in any application capable of consuming Bluetooth Smart profile data for:
• Heart Rate
• Bike Power (All Types)
• Bike Speed & Cadence
• Running Speed & Cadence
• Fitness Equipment (Bike Trainer, Treadmill, Rower, Climber, Cross, Trainer)

Full control of a FE-C enabled ANT+ trainer via BLE FTMS (Fitness Machine Service) supported apps.

This is the only stand-alone ANT+ to Bluetooth Smart converter on the market.

The CABLE also operates as a security device when attached to an object. When the security mode is enabled your phone will alert you if someone moves the object. Perfect for the coffee rides with your friends.

Works but could be much better

Used to convert heart rate ant + so compatible with iOS for Zwift on an iPad. Finds sensors quickly & reliably but interface into iOS more problematic & have to keep exiting Zwift to restart / check Cable. No on / off functionality so burns through batteries as keeps auto connecting with iPhone - hard to use Zwift companion when on the bike as wants to switch from iPad to iPhone. Once set up works well but annoying the takes away from ride time fiddling with it at start of each ride.

Worked great until the last update

I connect the cable to my garmin speed and cadence sensors to use my spin bike with zwift. Worked great until the last update now my speed drops to 0 randomly a few times each session. Annoying. Please fix!

Firmware issue

This used to work really well but the Jan/Feb 20 firmware update seems to have broken it. The app now won’t recognise the device properly. Have tried new batteries but no luck. A shame as it was a very useful bit of kit.
