Networking cable LOGON TCR55SS050O Cat5e SF/UTP (S-FTP) 5 m Orange RJ-45–RJ-45

LOGON TCR55SS050O Cat5e SF/UTP (S-FTP) 5 m Orange RJ-45–RJ-45 is a 5-meter patch cable designed for Ethernet connections in home and office networks. The cable meets Cat5e performance parameters with twisted-pair conductors and overall foil plus individual pair shielding (SF/UTP or S-FTP) to reduce electromagnetic interference. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 male connectors with molded boots that include kink protection and strain relief. The bright orange jacket improves visibility and identification in structured cabling setups.

Advantages

The SF/UTP (S-FTP) construction combines an overall foil shield with individually shielded pairs to provide enhanced protection against crosstalk and external electromagnetic noise, making the cable suitable for environments with nearby power lines or electronic equipment. Cat5e certification and 100 Ohm characteristic impedance ensure reliable transmission for Ethernet up to Cat5e speeds. The molded boots and strain relief extend connector life and reduce the risk of accidental disconnection or cable damage during installation and use.

Suitable for

• Ethernet connections in home LANs and small office networks
• Patching between wall outlets, switches and patch panels
• Equipment connections where improved shielding is required
• Structured cabling runs where color-coded identification is useful

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e

• Length: 5 m
• Jacket color: Orange
• Connector protection: Molded boot with kink protection and strain relief

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the network device (switch, router, modem, or network interface) and the other into the corresponding port on the destination device or patch panel. Ensure connectors are fully seated until the latch clicks. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends or crushing, and secure as needed using cable ties or channels while leaving some slack to prevent tension at connector ends.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to power cables for long distances; cross power lines at right angles if necessary. Use the orange color to maintain consistent color-coding in your cabling scheme and replace the cable if the jacket or connectors show visible damage.
