Cable management systems range from simple do-it-yourself
items to expensive integrated desk solutions. It
is important to have cables tidy and secure to reduce the risk
of damage and people tripping over them.
For cables trailing across open areas you can buy flexible cable protector. This can be cut to length.
A number of cables can be threaded into
the slit in the bottom of the cover.
The ideal solution for cables in and around the desk area is
to attach them to the desk itself. Cable should be fed around
the side and back of the desk rather than under the
chair or across the footwell. It is worth examining your desk to check
if it has a cable management system. This is usually located
at the rear of the desk either as part of the desktop itself
or immediately underneath.
If you do not have a cable management system as part of your
desk a simple solution is to use cable ties to group
the cables together, with hooks to suspend them.
