Network cable LOGON FTP Cat5e, 5 m, RJ-45–RJ-45, 1000 Mbit/s, Yellow

LOGON FTP Cat5e networking cable, 5 metres long with RJ-45 connectors on both ends, provides a shielded twisted pair connection suitable for standard Ethernet setups. The FTP (Foiled Twisted Pair) construction reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk compared with unshielded cables, helping to maintain a stable data link at speeds up to 1000 Mbit/s. The bright yellow jacket makes the cable easy to identify in multi-cable installations and simplifies routing in offices, datacentres and home networks.

Advantages

The cable combines Cat5e performance with FTP shielding to deliver reliable Gigabit-capable connections for typical network devices. Its 5-metre length covers common desktop-to-switch or patch-panel runs without excess slack, and the molded RJ-45 plugs provide secure mating with standard Ethernet ports. The coloured outer sheath supports organised cabling and quick visual identification during installation and maintenance.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, printers and IP phones to switches or routers
• Patching between network equipment in racks and wall panels
• Home and small office LAN connections requiring shielded cable
• Temporary or permanent desktop cabling where colour-coding aids management

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e
• Shielding: Foiled Twisted Pair (FTP)
• Length: 5 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 male – RJ-45 male
• Maximum supported data rate: 1000 Mbit/s (Gigabit Ethernet)
• Outer jacket colour: Yellow

How to use

Insert the RJ-45 connectors into the Ethernet ports of the devices you wish to connect until the latch clicks into place. For rack or patch-panel use, route the cable along cable management channels to avoid sharp bends and strain on the connectors. When disconnecting, press the connector latch and pull straight out to prevent damage to the plug or port. Ensure both ends are fully seated before testing the link to confirm network connectivity and speed.

Recommendations

For best performance, avoid tight bends and keep the cable away from strong sources of electromagnetic interference such as unshielded power lines or large motors. Use appropriate cable ties or organisers to prevent excessive tension on the RJ-45 plugs. For environments with very high interference or future higher-speed upgrades, consider shielded Cat6 or higher-rated cables.
