Cable Management...

[bsodmike]

I'm asking this question here due to the networking guys that have a lot of cables to manage, even tho this is for my HT setup.

What I'm after are velcro strips (about 1 inch+ wide) and at 90 degree orientation you'll find another velcro strap. I.e. you stick this onto a surface and use the strap to strap a cable.

I found this online:

But a source to buy 'em is a problem.

Thanks Dougal!: He found this: http://www.lanshack.com/Econo-Catch-...-P172C102.aspx

I'm also after the corrugated trunk stuff that is used (black color) in say a 1.5" size - where can I get some lengths of this as I need quite a bit.

I'm hoping to use the velcro stuff to strap the tubes in place, but the velcro stuff maybe also used for individual wires.

I want to stay away from zip ties, and as the back of my HT rack is smooth they won't work without the anchor pads.

On one side of my HT rack, I will have 23 cables running along a 17cm wide plank - hence the need for tubes, might even use 3 colors -> black for power, yellow for audio, red for video.

Advice would be appreciated.

RS won't let you copy URLs for individual items, but this should be a category page:

Nothing at RS - have a look at Farnell, or Maplin.

(Did see those at RS, but didn't think they werte close enough! - RS do sell velcro strapping, but without the mounts)
