Networking cable LOGON Cat6 UTP 5 m Red — RJ-45 to RJ-45, Cat6 standard

LOGON Cat6 UTP 5 m networking cable in red is an unshielded twisted-pair Ethernet cable designed to meet Cat6 performance requirements. With RJ-45 connectors on both ends and a 5-meter length, this cable is intended for connecting routers, switches, PCs, servers and other network equipment in home, office or rack environments where Gigabit LAN throughput and flexible routing are needed. The cable construction conforms to 100 Ohm differential impedance and supports frequencies up to 250 MHz.

Advantages

The cable uses 4 pairs of 26 AWG (26/7) stranded conductors with tight twisting to reduce crosstalk and maintain signal integrity at higher speeds. Molded boots with kink protection and strain relief on both RJ-45 plugs improve connector durability and help prevent damage at bending points. Category 6 certification ensures compatibility with Gigabit Ethernet applications and supports reliable network links over the specified distance.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs and laptops to routers or switches
• Linking switches and patch panels in small office or home networks
• Attaching servers or NAS devices to Gigabit network ports
• Temporary or permanent cable runs inside data cabinets and racks
• Ethernet connections for VoIP phones, printers and media players

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your network device and the other connector into the corresponding port of the router, switch or patch panel. Ensure the connectors click into place to confirm a secure mechanical and electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and keep it away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference such as large transformers or fluorescent lighting fixtures. For tidy installations in racks or along walls, secure the cable with cable ties or cable management clips, taking care not to compress the cable excessively.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this Cat6 cable for Gigabit Ethernet links up to 5 meters within standard office or home environments. Avoid running the cable parallel and close to high-voltage power lines; maintain reasonable separation from electrical cables to reduce potential interference. If you require longer runs, consider verifying overall link budget and use higher category or shielded cables where environmental noise or longer distances are factors.
