Networking cable LOGON UTP Cat.5e Red 2 m — RJ-45 to RJ-45, Cat5e

LOGON UTP Cat.5e Red 2 m is a 2-metre unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Ethernet patch cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends. Designed to meet Cat5e performance, this red networking cable is intended for reliable short-distance data transmission in home and office environments. The cable features four twisted pairs of 26/7 AWG conductors and a characteristic impedance of 100 Ohm, providing stable connectivity for Fast Ethernet and typical Gigabit-compatible Cabling within Cat5e limits.

Advantages

The cable offers flexible, low-profile construction suitable for patching between network devices, switches, routers and wall sockets. Molded boots with kink protection and strain relief protect the RJ-45 plugs from damage and accidental cable pull. Color coding in red simplifies network identification and cable management in patch panels and structured cabling setups.

Suitable for

• Patch connections between switches, routers and network sockets
• Home and small office Ethernet links up to Cat5e performance
• Short-range data wiring in server rooms and network racks
• Temporary or permanent network patching where cable visibility and identification are needed

Key specifications

• Length: 2 m
• Cable type: UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
• Category: Cat5e
• Conductor: 4 pairs, 26 AWG stranded (26/7)
• Characteristic impedance: 100 Ohm
• Connectors: RJ-45 male — both ends, 1:1 pinout

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet port on your devices until the latch clicks. Ensure the cable is routed without sharp bends and avoid placing heavy objects on it. For typical installations, use this 2 m patch cable to link desktops, switches, routers, patch panels or wall jacks. Verify link status on connected devices and test throughput if required to confirm performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep the cable length within recommended limits for Cat5e links for the intended network segment and avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines to reduce interference. Use the red color to mark specific network segments or device groups and replace the cable if connectors or the jacket show signs of wear.
