Networking cable LOGON TCU55U0025P Cat5e U/UTP (UTP) Purple 2.5 m RJ-45 gold contacts

LOGON TCU55U0025P is a 2.5 m Cat5e networking cable with U/UTP (unshielded) construction and RJ-45 connectors on both ends. The cable supports Cat5e performance for Ethernet data transmission and patching in home and office networks. Gold-plated contacts improve corrosion resistance and maintain consistent signal contact. The purple jacket provides clear visual identification for structured cabling or device-specific connections.

Advantages

The unshielded twisted pair design (4 x 2 AWG 26/7, 100 Ohm) ensures reliable data transfer at Cat5e-class speeds for typical LAN and patching applications. Molded boots with kink protection and strain relief reduce connector stress and improve durability during repeated insertion and routing. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts reduce oxidation and help preserve signal integrity over time. The 2.5 m length covers short to medium patch distances without excess slack.

Suitable for

• Ethernet patching between switches, routers and wall outlets
• Connecting PCs, printers and network devices in offices and homes
• Color-coded cable management and temporary network setups

Key specifications

• Length: 2.5 m
• Connector type: RJ-45 male to RJ-45 male
• Cable category: Cat5e U/UTP (unshielded)
• Conductors: 4 pairs, AWG 26/7 twisted pair
• Characteristic impedance: 100 Ohm
• Contact plating: gold-plated contacts

• Molded boot with kink protection and strain relief

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the appropriate Ethernet port until the latch clicks. Ensure both ends are fully seated in network devices such as switches, routers or wall jacks. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive pulling; use cable management clips or ties to secure the cable along racks or walls. For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel to strong electrical sources or fluorescent lighting for extended distances.

Recommendations

Use this Cat5e U/UTP cable for short to medium-length Ethernet connections within structured cabling systems. Choose color-coded lengths like purple to simplify identification. Replace the cable if connectors show wear or if transmission errors increase, and avoid using the cable in environments requiring shielded cable types.
