Yo Whats up!!

I am trying to get some information on how to properly tieing up the loose cable connections back of my PC, and internet? As much information as I got is that you can't really tie up the loose internet connection because it causes Conflicts with other cables is that true? What I would like to know is I'm planning to use some zaptraps to tie up the loose connections cables, but I don't know on if thats a good way to do it or not can anyone give me some assistance on this please?

Thanks

Zip ties have always worked for me.

Cable zipper seems pretty cool:

Yup... zip ties as well here and never had a problem with any cable conflict.

A few things things not mentioned here -

1) Velcro straps. - They sell em in packages you put the 1 cable through the loop and the rest of the cables next to it and wrap up the velcro - nice because you don't have to dispose of little plastic pieces. also nice because you don't have to wrap the entire length of the cable.

2) A cable trough connected to the back of the desk - a little more obrtusive but gets the job done.

Entirely untrue in some aspects. You can run an internet cat-5 right next to another cat-5,usb,keyboard,mouse and other periphrial lines with no problems. I would however caution bundling cat-5 with power lines as power lines can cause connectivity problems if there is any EMF problems. If the power is well insulated though you shouldn't experience any problems even with it bundled together.

Spot on.

If you have to run cat cabling near power cables, you want to cross it at a 90 degree to reduce EMF interference...though, this is more an issue with the power lines in the wall, not as much with the power cords your computer uses, though, I would still keep them in two seperate bundles. One for data cables, one for power cables.

Yea I know what you mean I've just boughten something like what you've talked about before, and what I've done is all the power connections into one, and the rest of them in another.. is the also correct way of doing it or does it need to be different??
