A cable management system includes a patch panel having a rear connectivity interface configured to connect with cables, and a cable support bracket. The cable support bracket includes a cable support plate configured to support the cables connected to the rear connectivity interface, an arm extending from the cable support plate, and a bias mechanism. The arm includes at least one arm portion mounted to the patch panel and a locking finger movable with respect to the arm portion. The bias mechanism operatively engages the arm portion and the locking finger and is configured to move the locking finger between a biased position and a released position. The locking finger engages the patch panel and secures the cable support bracket to the patch panel in the biased position, and the locking finger is disengaged from the patch panel and the cable support bracket can be removed from the patch panel in the released position
