LOGON networking cable TCR55SS003V — Cat5e S-FTP (SF/UTP), RJ-45 to RJ-45, 0.3 m, purple

LOGON networking cable TCR55SS003V is a 0.3 m patch cable designed to meet Cat5e performance for short Ethernet connections. The cable uses SF/UTP (also known as S-FTP) shielding to protect twisted pairs from external electromagnetic interference and is terminated with RJ-45 connectors on both ends featuring gold-plated contacts. Its compact purple jacket makes it easy to identify and route in patch panels, racks and desktop setups while providing reliable connectivity between switches, routers and network devices.

Advantages

The SF/UTP construction combines an overall braided shield with individually foil-wrapped pairs to reduce crosstalk and external noise, supporting stable data transmission at Cat5e frequencies. Short 0.3 m length minimises signal loss for patching within racks or between nearby devices and helps keep cable paths tidy. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts improve contact reliability and resist corrosion, ensuring consistent connection quality over time.

Suitable for

• Patching between switches, routers and patch panels in racks
• Connecting devices on crowded workstations where a short cable is needed
• Temporary or permanent short-distance Ethernet links in office and data centre environments

Key specifications

• Standard: Cat5e performance suitable for 100BASE-TX and similar applications
• Shielding: SF/UTP (overall braided shield plus foil-wrapped pairs)
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45 with gold-plated contacts
• Length: 0.3 m
• Color: Purple

How to use

Insert one RJ-45 connector into the network port of the first device and the other connector into the port of the second device until the clip clicks into place. Verify link LEDs on the connected devices to confirm physical connectivity. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain gentle curves to preserve shielding and pair geometry. For removal, depress the connector clip and pull straight out to avoid damaging the plug or port.

Recommendations

Use this 0.3 m LOGON Cat5e SF/UTP cable for short patching tasks where a shielded connection is required. Avoid tight bending radii and excessive mechanical strain; do not route the cable near high-power AC conductors where possible to maintain optimal signal integrity.
