      For packings of radius \(r\) collars about hyperplanes in \(\mathbb{H}^n\), the author proves that the Delaunay cells are truncated ultra-ideal simplices which tile \(\mathbb{H}^n\). If one places \(n+1\) hyperplanes in \(\mathbb{H}^n\) each at the distance of exactly \(2r\) to the others, then one could place radius \(r\) collars about these hyperplanes. The density of these collars within the corresponding Delaunay cell is an upper bound on density for all packings of radius \(r\) collars.
