Hubbell HC6APK90 Angled Patch Cable

Overview

The Hubbell HC6APK90 is a Category 6 patch cable featuring a 90-degree angled RJ45 connector on one end and a straight RJ45 connector on the other. This design is critical for installations where space is constrained, such as dense network racks, wall-mount enclosures, or behind equipment where standard straight connectors would obstruct airflow or prevent proper seating. It ensures a clean, reliable connection without excessive bending or strain on the cable, which is essential for maintaining network performance and preventing intermittent connectivity issues in surveillance and IT deployments.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for standard RJ45 network ports found in most network switches, routers, servers, and IP cameras. It is compatible with Category 6 (Cat 6) and Category 5e (Cat 5e) network infrastructure. The angled connector is particularly useful for devices with side-facing ports or when routing cables along the edge of a rack or within tight conduit runs. It interfaces directly with standard Ethernet ports on devices from brands like Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, and other IP camera manufacturers, as well as standard network switches from Cisco, Ubiquiti, and HPE.

Installation Notes

The 90-degree angled connector requires approximately 2 inches of clearance from the port's edge. Ensure sufficient space is available before connecting to avoid interference with adjacent ports or equipment. The cable jacket is rated for standard indoor, controlled environment installations. Avoid exposing the cable to extreme temperatures or excessive physical stress beyond its designed application.
