Cavo di rete Helos Cat 5e SF/UTP 3 m

The Helos Cat 5e SF/UTP 3 m networking cable is a 3-meter, red patch cable designed for wired Ethernet connections. It uses Cat5e specification and SF/UTP shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference and maintain signal quality over typical home and office distances. Both ends are fitted with standard RJ-45 connectors, making it compatible with routers, switches, network cards and other Ethernet-enabled devices supporting Cat5e.

Advantages

The SF/UTP shielding combines an overall foil shield with an unshielded twisted pair core to provide improved protection against external noise while retaining flexibility suitable for cable routing. The Cat5e standard supports fast data transmission for common network tasks and is backward compatible with older Ethernet equipment. The 3 m length offers a balance between reach and manageable cable routing in desk, rack or wall-mount installations. A molded connector design helps protect the cable termination and ensures reliable contact with RJ-45 ports.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop PCs, laptops or network printers to a router or switch
• Wiring small office workstations and home network setups
• Temporary or semi-permanent connections in server closets and patch panels within 3 m distance

Key specifications

• Cable standard: Cat5e
• Shielding: SF/UTP (overall foil shield with UTP pairs)
• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45
• Colour: Red

How to use

Plug one RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your device and the other into a router, switch or wall outlet supporting RJ-45 connections. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks to establish a secure physical and electrical connection. Route the cable to avoid tight bends, sharp edges and sources of strong electromagnetic interference. For patch panel use, insert the cable into the appropriate patch port and secure any cable management clips as needed.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep runs under typical maximum lengths for copper Ethernet and avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines. Verify device link/activity LEDs after connection to confirm proper link establishment. Use the red colour coding to identify specific network segments or device groups in multi-cable installations.
