![]() ![]() If you’ve made it this far then perhaps you have an interest in cable management too, or maybe you’re just tired of seeing cables everywhere. What I like about my shoe rack full of cables though is that I can easily see and find the exact type of cable I need when building a new desk setup or going on a trip. However, you can achieve a similar result by using a cardboard box and some old toilet paper or paper towel rolls. If putting together something like this is too geeky for you, I wouldn't blame you. Ethernet and other networking cables are on the bottom row, HDMI cables are stored a row up and then there are micro USB cables, USB-C cables and miscellaneous cables and adapters on the top row. It may not appear so at first glance, but there’s actually a method to my madness and all of the cables seen here are organized by type. To this end, I repurposed a hanging shoe rack to house all of my extra cables behind the closet door in my office. For that, you’re going to want to use cable sleeves instead.Ĭables organized by type in an over-the-door shoe rack While they’re great for bundling your cables together, they still don’t give you that clean, aesthetically pleasing look. ![]() Cable sleeves for exposed cables, cable ties for hidden onesĪ lot of times when cable management is discussed, cable ties are one of the first things that come up. Even if you only implement a few of them, I’m sure they’ll make a huge difference. Here are the top 5 cable management tricks I’ve learned along the way to help you improve your own desk setup or even your entertainment center. However, when I got serious about building PCs and keeping them clean, I came to the realization that cable management is just as important for your desk setup as your PC, monitor, speakers and other peripherals. Like many people out there, I used to just hide my cables behind furniture while ignoring the ones I couldn’t hide. The same goes for when you’re sitting at your desk. There’s nothing better than sitting down in front of one of the best TVs and no longer having that one pesky cable distracting you from your favorite show or movie. Just like when you roll up your sleeves and finally get around to spring cleaning, tidying up all of those loose and dangling cables can be really rewarding.
