Networking cable Lanberg LCF5-30CU-0305-BK RJ45 Cat5e 305 m Black

LANBERG LCF5-30CU-0305-BK is a gelled outdoor Cat5e FTP (shielded) LAN cable with a length of 305 m. The cable uses 100% bare copper conductors (AWG 24, 4*2*0.5 mm) with solid single-wire stranding, HDPE conductor insulation and a PE outer sheath in black (RAL9004). The jacket includes a printed meter counter at every metre and the cable is designed for operation up to 100 MHz, suitable for outdoor installations requiring a gel-filled shielded cable.

Advantages

The FTP (shielded) construction and gel-filled design provide improved protection against electromagnetic interference and moisture ingress for outdoor use. Solid 100% bare copper conductors ensure consistent electrical performance and low attenuation across the 305 m length. The printed length counter on the jacket simplifies installation and measurement on site.

Suitable for

• Outdoor and buried network runs where gel-filled shielding is required
• Ethernet connections up to Cat5e performance (up to 100 MHz)
• Long-distance horizontal runs within the stated working distance (150–180 m)
• Environments needing reduced EMI and moisture protection

How to use

Install the cable following standard network cabling practices for outdoor and gel-filled cables. Use appropriate outdoor-rated connectors, glands and junction boxes; terminate with compatible RJ45 connectors or keystone jacks intended for Cat5e FTP cable. Ensure proper grounding of the foil shield at patch panels or distribution points. When burying, follow local regulations and use conduit or protective duct where required.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, maintain the specified operating temperature range, protect the cable from prolonged UV and mechanical damage, and terminate the shield correctly to avoid degradation of EMI protection. Observe the recommended working distance for best signal quality.
