General Technical Chat / Re: Cable Management
« Last post by edpalmer42 on Today at 10:17:46 pm »I came across an Ikea wire rack for holding stemware glasses at a bar. I mounted it on the end of one of my shelving units and adjusted the width of the slot so that it holds a BNC connector while allowing the cable to slide in. I slid vinyl tubing over the rails so that the cables didn't slide on the chrome rails.
I'm going to build another cable holder. Take a flat piece of wood and mount dowels or threaded rods that are spaced to hold the connectors while allowing the cable to slide between the rods. Put vinyl tubing over the rods and ensure that the tubing sticks out beyond the end of the rod so that if someone bumps into it they hit vinyl tubing rather than the wood or metal rod.
