Καλώδιο Patch InLine Cat.5e SF/UTP (S-FTP) γκρι 20 m

Patch cable InLine Cat.5e SF/UTP (S-FTP) grey 20 m is a 20-metre twisted-pair network cable designed for connecting network devices with RJ45 ports, such as switches, routers, wall sockets, patch panels and network cards. The cable meets Cat5e performance and supports Gigabit Ethernet links at up to 1 Gb/s with a maximum frequency of 125 MHz. An overall foil shield plus individually foiled pairs reduce electromagnetic interference and help maintain stable signal transmission in typical office, home and rack environments.

Advantages

The SF/UTP (S-FTP) construction provides both an overall foil shield and foil-wrapped individual pairs, improving protection against external electromagnetic noise compared with unshielded cables. At 20 metres length the cable offers flexible reach for desk-to-switch and patch panel connections while preserving Cat5e bandwidth for Gigabit networking. Its grey jacket and standard RJ45 terminations make it suitable for visible installations and structured cabling in racks.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This Cat5e cable is not intended for 10 Gigabit Ethernet or other applications that require higher-category cabling (Cat6/Cat6a or above) or higher frequency ratings. For runs longer than the recommended Ethernet segment limits or for installations requiring plenum-rated jackets, a different cable type may be necessary.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug the RJ45 connectors into the corresponding network ports on devices such as switches, routers, wall sockets or network cards. Ensure connectors are fully seated and that cable bends respect minimum bend radius to avoid degrading performance. For permanent installations, route the cable in cable channels or racks and avoid close parallel runs with high-voltage power lines to minimise interference.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use the cable for standard desk-to-switch and patch-panel connections within its 20 m length and Cat5e performance. Where higher speeds, longer runs or specific fire ratings are needed, select a higher-category or appropriately rated cable.
