Abstract
A cable and wire management track for accommodating large cable runs. The computer system has a plurality of peripheral components, such as a monitor, keyboard, printer, mouse, speakers, routers, bridges, switches, modems, etc. The cable and wire management track mounts to a wall, rack or enclosure, and has a plurality of hangers for receiving the wires issuing from the components. The hangers are mounted for sliding and rotative indexing upon the track, and are easily positioned behind each peripheral unit in order to receive and store its cables and wires.
Claims15
A cable and wire management device for a computer system having a number of peripheral components, comprising:
- an elongated track supporting a plurality of hanger members thereupon, said elongated track having means for mounting said elongated track to a wall, rack or enclosure, each hanger member having rotational means for rotatively supporting each hanger member upon said elongated track;
- and
- translational means disposed between said elongated track and each of said plurality of hanger members, for supporting said hanger members for translational movement upon said elongated track.
A cable and wire management device for a computer system having a number of peripheral components, comprising:
- an elongated track supporting a plurality of wire and cable support members thereupon, said elongated track having means for mounting said elongated track to a wall, rack or enclosure, each wire and cable support member of said plurality of wire and cable support members having ability to run vertically or horizontally, supporting each wire and cable support member upon said elongated track;
- and
- translational means disposed between said elongated track and each of said plurality of wire and cable support members for supporting said wire and cable support members for translational movement upon said elongated track.
A cable and wire management device for a computer system having a number of peripheral components, comprising an elongated track supporting a plurality of wire and cable support members thereupon, said elongated track having means for mounting said elongated track to a wall, rack or enclosure, each wire and cable support member of said plurality of wire and cable support members having both rotational and translational support means for rotatively and translatively supporting each wire and cable support member upon said elongated track.
