Under Desk Cable Management

What Options Are Available for Cable Management Under a Desk?

Under desk cable management is a system that organizes cables and keeps them out of sight. This system is invaluable to everyone who has had to deal with unruly and unkempt cables. By placing the cables under the desk in an orderly fashion, it allows for the desktop to maintain a fresh, professional look.

Cable management is used as a way to collect all wires and connections into one neat package. Having a bunch of wires sprawled on tables and floors can seem unprofessional. Not only that, but cables running from one side of the room to another can cause tripping hazards. It is essential that hazards are reduced in an office environment. Under desk cable management systems and sets are the way to do just that.

Types

Knowing the different kinds of cable management is important for selecting the right product for your desk. With all under desk systems they are hidden by attaching the cable management product to the underside of the desktop.

Cable Management comes in the form of trays, racks and sleeves. Trays and racks are similar to metal baskets and are screwed in by their tops to the under side of the desk. They are then hanging from the desk and allow cords to rest spaciously in the basket area. They are simple to install but some require screws while others are attached via clamps. Wire management troughs are similar but made of plastic and enclosed on fours sides, with a slight opening to feed cords through.

Cable management sleeves are another great cord organization option. They are a tubing type fabric that are long and slender and have a zipper along the length of it to which it can open, be wrapped around all cords, then zipped up. Similar models without a zipper contain cords by wrapping around them while maintaining their tube shape. These are the easiest to utilize.

Cable management clips are good for standing desk cable management. They can be either small clips that adhere to the sides of a desk and hold single cords in place or a clip link system which allows you to add links to achieve the desired height. They conceal cords and adjust along with your work surface.
