Hubbell Premise Wiring HC6R40 Cat6 Slim Patch Cord

Product Description

The HUBBELL PREMISE WIRING HC6R40 is a Category 6 slim-profile patch cord designed for structured cabling installations in commercial and residential network environments. Built under the Nextspeed product line, it delivers reliable high-speed data transmission consistent with Cat6 performance standards. The slim form factor reduces cable bulk in high-density patch panels and switch ports, improving airflow and cable management in tight equipment spaces. Licensed low-voltage technicians and network infrastructure installers are the primary trades that work with this cable in both new construction and retrofit applications.

This patch cord is suited for use in data centers, telecom rooms, office network closets, and structured wiring installations where Cat6 performance is required. The slim design makes it particularly useful in high-density environments where standard-diameter patch cords create congestion at patch panels or switch faceplates. It is sold individually and is appropriate for horizontal runs between patch panels and active equipment or for short device-to-port connections.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-speed data applications
• Slim-profile construction reduces congestion at high-density patch panels and switches
• Sold individually, allowing precise quantity ordering for installations of any scale
• Part of the Nextspeed Cat6 patch cable product family

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit patch cord for Cat6 and Cat6E structured cabling systems using standard RJ45 keystone jacks, patch panels, and network switch ports.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed low-voltage or data cabling technicians following TIA-568 structured cabling standards. Ensure patch panel ports and switch interfaces are de-energized or ports are unoccupied before seating or removing connectors to avoid data disruption. Do not exceed the minimum bend radius for Cat6 cable, as sharp bends can degrade signal performance. Inspect RJ45 connector seating fully before securing cable management hardware.
