Networking cable LOGON TCU55U0025G Cat5e U/UTP (UTP) RJ-45 0.25 m Blue

LOGON TCU55U0025G Cat5e U/UTP (UTP) RJ-45 0.25 m Blue is a short patch cable designed for reliable Ethernet connections in home and office networks. The cable uses four twisted pairs (4 x 2 AWG 26/7) with 100 Ω characteristic impedance and unshielded construction, terminated with gold‑plated RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. At 0.25 m length this blue patch lead is suitable for close-range links between devices, switches, and patch panels where a compact, low-profile connection is needed.

Advantages

This Cat5e U/UTP cable provides stable signal transmission for Fast Ethernet and basic Gigabit links within short distances. Gold‑plated connector contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The boot with kink protection and strain relief reduces stress at the connector, extending service life while maintaining a neat appearance. A visible length marking on the boot helps with quick identification during installation and cable management.

Suitable for

• Short patch connections between network equipment (switch-to-patch panel, switch-to-switch)
• Connecting devices in rack or desktop setups with minimal cable slack
• Home network and small office local area network wiring
• Temporary test connections and equipment staging

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on the devices to be connected until the retaining clip clicks into place. Use the cable for short links where 0.25 m length provides tidy routing without excess slack. Avoid sharp bends near the connector boots and do not strain or tug the cable; the integrated strain relief reduces stress but proper routing and securing in a rack or along cable trays will prolong service life. The cable is ready to use without additional configuration.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, keep this Cat5e cable within recommended distances for the intended network speed and avoid routing alongside high‑voltage power lines. Use labelled or colour‑coded patch leads for organised patch panels, and inspect connector boots periodically for wear in heavily used environments.
