Networking cable LOGON TCR55SS200BL Cat5e F/UTP (FTP) 20 m RJ-45–RJ-45

LOGON TCR55SS200BL Cat5e F/UTP (FTP) 20 m RJ-45–RJ-45 is a 20-metre shielded Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable wired connections between network equipment. The cable meets Cat5e performance for fast LAN, router and switch links, combining four twisted pairs with foil shielding to maintain signal integrity over moderate distances. Both ends are fitted with shielded RJ-45 male connectors and protective boots with strain relief to reduce mechanical stress at the plug.

Advantages

This Cat5e F/UTP (FTP) cable provides improved protection against electromagnetic interference thanks to the foil shield, which helps reduce crosstalk and external noise in environments with multiple electrical sources. The 26/7 stranded conductors balance flexibility and signal performance, making the cable suitable for installation runs that require bending and routing. Shielded RJ-45 connectors and kink-protection boots improve connector longevity and connection stability.

Suitable for

• Wired connections between computers, switches and routers in home and office networks
• Structured cabling runs where foil shielding is required to limit interference
• Patch panels, wall outlets and network racks in small to medium-sized installations
• Temporary or semi-permanent cabling where a 20 m length is appropriate

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end of the LOGON Cat5e cable to the Ethernet port of your device and the other end to the switch, router or outlet. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch engages for a secure electrical and mechanical connection. For best signal performance, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling on the cable; route the cable away from high-voltage power lines and strong electromagnetic sources where possible. The shielded connectors should be used with grounded shielded equipment or shielded patch panels to obtain full shielding benefits.

Recommendations

Use this shielded Cat5e cable in environments where EMI reduction is desired, such as near electrical equipment or bundled cable runs. For permanent structured cabling, verify grounding of shielded components and choose cable paths that minimize mechanical stress. If higher bandwidth or longer runs are needed, consider upgrading to Cat6 or fibre solutions.
