Product Description
The HUBBELL PREMISE WIRING HC6W45 is a Category 6 slim patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. This low-profile patch cable delivers reliable gigabit and fast Ethernet connectivity while occupying less space in high-density patch panel deployments. The slim jacket design reduces cable bulk and improves airflow management in crowded enclosures. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling contractors select this cord for clean, organized terminations where standard-diameter patch cables create congestion at the panel face or switch ports.
The HC6W45 is suited for use in telecommunications rooms, data centers, server closets, and office network deployments. Its Category 6 rating supports structured cabling systems built to TIA-568 standards. The slim form factor makes it a practical choice in high-density patch panels where multiple cables terminate in close proximity. Installation scenarios include connecting patch panels to network switches, workstation drops, and equipment rack pathways where cable management is a priority.
Key Features
- Category 6 performance rating supports gigabit Ethernet and beyond
- Slim jacket profile reduces bundle diameter in high-density panel installations
- Snagless boot design protects the latch tab and simplifies insertion and removal
- Sold individually, allowing precise quantity purchasing for structured cabling projects
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use patch cord for Cat6 and Cat6E structured cabling systems using standard RJ45 ports and patch panels.
Installation Notes
Installation is typically performed by low-voltage cabling technicians or network infrastructure contractors. Power down or log off active equipment before reseating patch cords on live switch ports where possible to avoid unintended network interruptions. Verify that the RJ45 latch clicks fully into the port before routing the cable to ensure a secure connection. Follow applicable ANSI/TIA-568 cabling standards for structured wiring installations.
