Subreddit Rules
tl;dr: IF IT'S NOT NICE CABLING, EARN A BAN
IF IT LOOKS LIKE SPAGHETTI, WE DON'T WANT TO SEE IT. (Earns a long ban)
SEE RULE #1
Please don't post non-cableporn stuff, or other low-effort content. NO MEMES
Image posts only, text posts can be directed to /r/cableadvice.
Small DIY projects belong in /r/cablemanagement or /r/homelab
Images contained in this album of common re-posts, should not be posted, and will be removed.
Reposts of any content posted within the last 6 months or in the top 100 posts on this sub will be removed.
Conduit / tubing isn't cable porn.
Images only, no video posts.
While you are welcome to post photos of setups you didn't create, if the photos are of your own work, it's worth including a quick write up of what's going on for those curious.
Smaller projects are okay as long as they're exceptionally clean and interesting, and you include some explanation. A good rule of thumb is it should have at least 20 cables. Desktop PCs, your home desk, and similar, will be removed (see rule 5).
Please note we do not accept NSFW material. This is a subreddit that people view and post to from work.
This subreddit is growing constantly, and we encourage active involvement. If you want to see something here that isn't, get in touch with iDemonix or the other mods.

Any idea how I should manage the cables on the Apple TV and a Hue Sync. I have some railings I got from Amazon but don’t know if that’s the best option for a clean look.
I promise I will shorten the run and make tidy. I'm exhausted for today, took me a few hours to plan the run, get the hardware and get it functional until tomorrow.
Just a small bit of fiber thought some might like it. Thoughts and observations welcome.
Can anyone tell me on average how long would it take to wire a 32 laptop cart and have some good cable management? And how much would someone charge for there services to wire a cart?
