Networking cable LOGON TCR55SS030B Cat5e SF/UTP (S-FTP) Blue, 3 m, RJ-45–RJ-45

LOGON TCR55SS030B is a 3 m blue networking patch cable designed to meet Cat5e performance requirements. The cable features SF/UTP (S-FTP) shielding that combines an overall foil with individually screened pairs to reduce electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. Terminated with RJ-45 straight male connectors on both ends, this patch cable is intended for standard Ethernet connections in home and office environments and is compatible with patch panels, switches and routers supporting Cat5e.

Advantages

The SF/UTP (S-FTP) construction provides enhanced protection against external interference compared with unshielded cables, improving signal integrity in electrically noisy environments. The 3 m length offers flexibility for desk- and rack-level connections without excess cable clutter. RJ-45 connectors ensure compatibility with standard networking equipment, while the blue jacket facilitates visual identification within structured cabling runs.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, switches and routers in small office or home networks
• Patch panel to switch or switch to wall outlet connections
• Temporary or permanent workstation cabling where Cat5e speeds are sufficient

Key specifications

• Cable category: Cat5e
• Shielding: SF/UTP (S-FTP) — overall foil with individually shielded pairs
• Length: 3 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 straight male to RJ-45 straight male
• Color: Blue

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 plug to the Ethernet port of your device or patch panel and the other RJ-45 plug to the corresponding port on a switch, router or wall socket. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure connection. For shielded installations, verify that connected equipment and patch panels support cable shielding and, if required, ensure proper grounding of the shield at one or both ends according to your installation practices.

Recommendations

Avoid sharp bends and tight routing around metal edges; maintain the recommended bend radius to preserve performance. Keep the cable away from high-voltage power lines and sources of strong electromagnetic interference when possible. For links longer than 3 m or for higher network categories, select an appropriate cable type to meet distance and bandwidth requirements.
