  • Managing computer cables?

    Help!

    We need to manage our office's computer cables asap. There are about 15 desks with computers and network cables, power cables, audio cables, keyboards, mice, etc.

    I need to get some kind of rail system for under the desks or that attaches to the desk legs or something. Just wondering if anyone has picked up anything like this for the home or office and can make a recommendation. I gotta pick it up in town, I can't order it.

    Obviously I can use zip ties, but kinda want to totally enclose the cables as much as possible.

    Just go to any Office Depot and pick up their plastic or metal rails. They screw into any part of the desk and work great!

        The cheapest solution is going with a wire-loom type of wrap.
        It looks decent and doesnt affect the systems with EMI unlike wrapping them in a metal chanel.
        You can pick up loom at places like princess auto, crappy tire and SOME electronics shops.

          I use zip ties, and it works well for me, sometimes I tape things too
