Leviton Telcom 6H460-4R Cat 6 High-flex Patch Cord

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM 6H460-4R is a Category 6 high-flex patch cord rated for CM and LSZH jacket compliance. It is designed for structured cabling installations where repeated cable movement, tight routing, or low-smoke zero-halogen requirements are a priority. The high-flex construction allows the cable to withstand frequent bending cycles without degrading signal integrity, making it a reliable choice in active cable management environments, server rooms, and commercial data closets. Electricians and low-voltage cabling technicians install this type of patch cord as a standard connection between network switches, patch panels, and end-user equipment.

This patch cord is suited for commercial and residential structured cabling systems where Cat 6 performance is required. The LSZH jacket rating makes it appropriate for plenum-adjacent or enclosed environments where local codes restrict halogen-containing materials. The CM rating indicates suitability for in-wall and general commercial wiring runs. It is sold individually as a single unit, making it easy to source for specific port-count needs without overordering.

Key Features

• Category 6 performance supports Gigabit Ethernet and high-bandwidth data applications
• High-flex construction withstands repeated bending cycles for use in dynamic cable environments
• LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke and halogen gas emission in the event of fire
• CM rating meets National Electrical Code requirements for commercial wiring installations
• Sold as a single unit for precise quantity ordering

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard patch cord for use with Cat 6 patch panels, keystone jacks, and network switches in structured cabling systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed low-voltage cabling technicians or electricians qualified in structured cabling work. Follow local AHJ requirements and applicable NEC articles governing communication wiring when routing and terminating patch cords. Avoid sharp bend radii that exceed the cable's minimum bend specification, and do not cinch cable ties so tightly that they deform the jacket. Confirm that the installed environment's code requirements align with the CM and LSZH ratings before installation.
