Hubbell Premise Wiring HC6BK80 Cat6 Slim Patch Cord

Product Description

The HUBBELL PREMISE WIRING HC6BK80 is a Category 6 slim-profile patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. The slim form factor reduces cable bulk at patch panels and switch ports, improving airflow and cable management in high-density rack and enclosure deployments. This cord is part of the Nextspeed Cat6 line, built to meet Cat6 performance standards for reliable gigabit network connections. Licensed low-voltage cabling technicians and network infrastructure installers are the primary installers of this type of patch cord.

The HC6BK80 is suited for use in data centers, server rooms, telecommunications closets, and structured cabling systems requiring Cat6 performance. Its slim jacket design makes it especially practical in high-density patch panel environments where standard-diameter patch cords create cable management challenges. It is sold as a single unit and is appropriate for horizontal or equipment patch applications in both new construction and retrofit installations.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance supports gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed network protocols
• Slim-profile jacket reduces bundle diameter and improves airflow in dense rack environments
• Nextspeed Cat6 series construction for consistent transmission performance
• Black jacket color for standard identification or color-coded cabling schemes
• Sold individually for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard patch cord for use with Cat6 and Cat6E patch panels, keystone jacks, and RJ45 ports in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage cabling technician or qualified network installer in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Ensure patch panel and switch ports are powered down or that proper ESD precautions are followed when working in live rack environments. Avoid sharp bends below the minimum bend radius to maintain signal integrity. Do not exceed the rated pull tension during cable routing.
