Hubbell Premise Wiring HCL6OR20 Cat6 Patch Cord Low Od

Product Description

The HUBBELL PREMISE WIRING HCL6OR20 is a Category 6 patch cord featuring a low-profile, slim outer diameter jacket designed for high-density network installations. This structured cabling component delivers the 250 MHz bandwidth performance specified under the Category 6 standard, making it a reliable choice for Ethernet data runs in server rooms, telecom closets, and commercial or residential data networks. Network technicians and low-voltage cabling installers use this patch cord to connect switches, patch panels, and end devices where cable management space is tight and bend-radius control is critical.

This patch cord is suited for high-density patch panel environments where standard-diameter Cat6 cables create congestion or restrict airflow. The slim OD design reduces bundle diameter in cable trays and raceway runs, which is a direct advantage in structured cabling installations following ANSI/TIA-568 standards. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both new installations and retrofit upgrades in commercial or light industrial data cabling systems.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance rating supporting up to 250 MHz bandwidth
• Low OD slim jacket reduces cable bundle bulk in high-density installations
• Snagless or slim boot design protects locking tab during routing and extraction
• Sold as a single unit for flexible quantity ordering
• Part of the Nextspeed product family for structured cabling applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use patch cord for Category 6 and Category 6E patch panel and switch port applications in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

This patch cord is installed by low-voltage cabling technicians following ANSI/TIA-568 structured cabling guidelines. No tools are required for standard patch connections; ensure the RJ45 connector is fully seated until the locking tab clicks. Avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius for Cat6 cabling to maintain signal integrity. Do not route alongside high-voltage conductors without proper separation per NEC guidelines.
