Network patch cable LOGON Cat5e UTP RJ-45 to RJ-45 7.5 m Blue

LOGON Cat5e UTP patch cable, 7.5 m in blue, provides a straightforward wired connection between network devices using standard RJ‑45 connectors. Built to Cat5e performance with unshielded twisted pair construction, the cable supports typical Ethernet applications in home and small office environments where reliable data transmission up to Cat5e specifications is required.

Advantages

The cable uses 4 pairs of 26 AWG stranded conductors (26/7) and a 100 Ohm characteristic impedance to maintain signal integrity for Fast Ethernet and lower Gigabit segments where Cat5e is appropriate. Both ends feature molded RJ‑45 plugs with boots that include kink protection and strain relief to reduce connector stress and extend service life. The blue jacket and length marking on the boot make identification and cable management easier in patch panels and workstations.

Suitable for

• Connecting PCs, laptops and workstations to switches or routers
• Patch panel to switch connections in small office racks
• Linking networked devices such as printers, access points and IP cameras (within Cat5e performance limits)
• Temporary or permanent horizontal cabling where a 7.5 m reach is required

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e UTP (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 7.5 m
• Conductor: 4 × 2, 26 AWG stranded (26/7)
• Characteristic impedance: 100 Ohm
• Connectors: RJ‑45 male to RJ‑45 male, molded boots with strain relief
• Colour: Blue
• Wiring: 1:1 straight-through termination

How to use

Plug one RJ‑45 connector into the Ethernet port of a switch, router or network interface on a computer and insert the other end into the corresponding port on the remote device. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; use the molded boot and strain relief to prevent damage at the connector. For installation in racks or along walls, secure the cable with appropriate cable ties or organizers without crushing the jacket.

Recommendations

Use this Cat5e UTP cable for standard Ethernet links within the 7.5 m length; for longer runs, higher bandwidth requirements, PoE performance verification or electrically noisy environments consider using higher category (Cat6/Cat6a) or shielded cabling. Inspect connectors for damage before use and avoid running the cable parallel to power lines to minimise interference.
