Tapered transition ramp for cable protector

A tapered transition ramp for a cable protection system, comprising:

• a top surface;
• a bottom surface;
• a first end;
• at least one connector provided at the first end and configured to removably attach the tapered transition ramp to a first side ramp of the cable protection system;
• wherein the top surface is a planar surface that is continuously tapered in both a first direction and a second direction.

A method of assembling a cable protection system, comprising:

• providing a first cable protector having a first side;
• providing a first side ramp adjacent the first side of the first cable protector;
• providing a tapered structure adjacent at least one end of the first side ramp;
• wherein the tapered structure comprises a planar top surface that is continuously tapered in both a first direction and a second direction.

A method of assembling a cable protection system, comprising:

• providing a first cable protector having a first side;
• providing a first side ramp adjacent the first side of the first cable protector;
• providing a tapered structure adjacent at least one end of the first side ramp;
• wherein the tapered structure is tapered in both a first direction and a second direction removably attaching a second cable protector in series with the first cable protector;
• providing a second side ramp adjacent a first side of the second cable protector, the second side ramp configured to have a slope that is steeper than a slope of the first side ramp;
• overlapping the tapered structure over at least a portion of the second side ramp.

A cable protection system, comprising:

• a first cable protector having a first side;
• at least one channel extending between opposing ends of the first cable protector and structured to receive at least one cable;
• a first side ramp removably attached to the first side of the first cable protector;
• a second cable protector connected in series with the first cable protector, the second cable protector comprising a first side;
• a second side ramp adjacent the first side of the second cable protector, the second side ramp configured to have a slope that is steeper than a slope of the first side ramp;
• a tapered structure removably attached to at least one end of the first side ramp and configured to overlap at least a portion of the second side ramp;
• wherein the tapered structure comprises a substantially planar top surface and is tapered in both a first direction and a second direction substantially orthogonal to the first direction.
