Cable management

Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-001439

The organization and securing of electrical, optical, and data cables within a computer case, server rack, or data center. Proper management involves bundling cables together, routing them away from airflow paths and sources of electromagnetic interference, and using specific hardware to contain them. Components used for this purpose include cable ties, sleeves, trays, and conduits, which are sometimes specified in building codes or data center standards like TIA-942.
