Patent attributes
A cable management system is provided that facilitates routing of cables from a rack, frame or cabinet. The cable management system may be mounted in a vertical or a horizontal orientation, and generally includes a wire cage assembly and at least one cable guide mounted to the wire cage assembly. The wire cage assembly is fabricated from vertical and horizontal wires, such that open regions are positioned for advantageous interaction with the disclosed cable guide. The cable guide generally includes an elongated member, a plurality of projection arms extending from the elongated member; and at least one L-shaped latching member extending from the elongated member. The cable guide advantageously mounts to the wire cage assembly through a latching mechanism that interacts with the back wall of the wire cage assembly. A method for mounting the cable guide(s) to the wire cage assembly is also provided.
