ProAV Cables Built for Commercial Integration
Windy City Wire manufactures SmartWire low-voltage cabling purpose-built for commercial ProAV systems. From AV-over-IP networks to control, conferencing, and signal distribution, our pro av cable portfolio helps integrators deliver stable performance, clean installs, and predictable labor on every job.
Every SmartWire cable is made in the United States and designed for professional installers. Our process focuses on signal integrity, pullability, and jobsite efficiency so that racks, pathways, and endpoints come together with fewer reworks and less downtime.
Installation efficiency without compromise
SmartWire Glide Technology lubrication is applied during manufacturing to reduce friction during pulls by up to 70%. The result is smoother routing through conduit and pathways, fewer kinks and snags, and faster terminations—especially in dense head-ends and long horizontal runs typical of ProAV deployments.
Fit for today’s AV-over-IP and hybrid systems
SmartWire pro av cable supports the bandwidth and noise performance modern AV transports demand, while maintaining flexibility for rack dressing and device connections. For finishing work and rapid turn-ups, we also offer Category 6 RJ45-to-RJ45 patch cables that pair cleanly with bulk runs to complete switches, DSPs, codecs, and endpoints.

How SmartWire adds value to your next ProAV project
Summary
Windy City Wire’s SmartWire pro av cable and matching patch cables give integrators a dependable foundation for commercial AV networks. With low-voltage constructions designed for clean pulls, precise terminations, and stable signal delivery, our product offering helps you control labor, maintain consistency across sites, and finish jobs with confidence—whether you’re building a new head-end, expanding a campus network, or refreshing conference spaces.
Pro AV Patch Cables for Professional Audio-Visual Networks
Windy City Wire provides reliable, high-performance patch cables engineered for commercial and industrial audio-visual systems. These CAT 6 UTP, PVC-jacketed, RJ45-to-RJ45 cords are built to support modern networked AV, control, and IoT devices across a broad range of environments. As part of a complete pro av cable strategy, our patch cable solutions help integrators standardize connections inside racks, at workstations, and across edge devices where consistency and uptime matter.
Where Patch Cables Fit in AV Workflows
Patch cables close the gap between bulk horizontal cabling and active endpoints. They provide the final, flexible link that makes day-to-day operation and service efficient:

What to Expect from Our Patch Cables
Available Lengths
To support common rack and endpoint distances, multiple lengths are available, including 3 ft, 5 ft, 7 ft, 10 ft, and 15 ft. Using the shortest appropriate length helps reduce clutter and maintain airflow inside equipment racks.
Application Examples by Space
Best Practices for Deployment
How This Supports Pro AV Outcomes
Selecting the right patch cable strategy reduces installation time, simplifies service, and maintains consistent signal performance. In modern AV ecosystems—especially AV-over-IP—these cords are a small component with a large impact on reliability. Whether you are building a new rack, refreshing a conference suite, or expanding a campus network, standardized patch cables help ensure your pro av cable infrastructure remains organized, scalable, and easy to manage.
Planning and Procurement Guidance
When building a bill of materials, account for switch density, patch panel positions, and edge devices at each rack elevation. Stock a balanced mix of 3 ft, 5 ft, 7 ft, 10 ft, and 15 ft cords to address typical rack-to-device and panel-to-switch distances. This approach reduces field improvisation and supports repeatable, documented installation practices.
