Networking cable LOGON UTP Cat.5e Red 20 m with RJ-45 connectors

LOGON UTP Cat.5e Red 20 m with RJ-45 connectors is a 20-metre unshielded twisted pair patch cable designed for Ethernet networks up to the Cat5e standard. The cable uses four twisted pairs (26 AWG, stranded) and delivers balanced 100 Ω transmission suitable for typical home and small office networking tasks. Both ends are fitted with RJ-45 male connectors and moulded boots with kink protection and strain relief; the red jacket provides clear visual identification for cabling runs.

Advantages

This LOGON Cat.5e UTP cable combines standard-compliant signal transmission with a flexible stranded conductor construction for easier routing and reliable contact in patch panels, switches and network interfaces. The moulded boots reduce connector stress and help prevent accidental cable damage, while the red outer jacket simplifies identification of specific links in multi-cable installations. The 20 m length allows connection between distant devices without additional patching hardware.

Suitable for

• Connecting computers, printers and access points to switches or routers
• Patch panels and wall outlets in home and small office networks
• Temporary or permanent cabling where a distinct, colour-coded link is required
• Network testing, setup and troubleshooting tasks that require 20 m reach

Key specifications

• Category: Cat5e (unshielded twisted pair)
• Length: 20 m
• Conductor: 4 pairs, 26 AWG stranded
• Characteristic impedance: 100 Ω
• Connectors: RJ-45 male on both ends with moulded boot and strain relief
• Jacket colour: Red
• Pinout: 1:1 straight-through wiring

How to use

Plug each RJ-45 connector into the network interfaces of the devices you wish to connect—typically a computer, switch, router or patch panel. Ensure both devices are powered and check link/activity LEDs to confirm successful connection. Route the cable away from sources of electrical interference and avoid sharp bends; the moulded boot provides some protection at the connector but do not apply excessive traction. For permanent installations, secure the cable along routes using appropriate clips or cable management to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For best performance, keep cable runs under the maximum recommended lengths for Ethernet segments and avoid tightly coiling the cable. When using multiple colour-coded cables, record the colour assignments to simplify future maintenance. Inspect connectors periodically and replace any cable showing visible damage to the jacket or connectors.
