Eliminating Cable Clutter

1. Cable and Wire Safety
If you have kids or pets in the house, then that maze of cables is an accident waiting to happen. Wire Loom is a great way to organize cables and cords into color-coded bundles that will help keep your electronic equipment tidy. Some pets, like rabbits or young puppies, are known to chew on cords. But extra tough wire looms can keep your pet from damaging your cables and preventing equipment failure or fire hazards.

2. Communication Sphere
Imagine putting both the data and power needs of your equipment in a single unit. The Communications Sphere is an interesting product that provides two ports for voice/data in one half of a sphere and will form a complete sphere when combined with the Power Sphere, used for computer power distribution, or another Communications sphere. It is used on the work surface for easy accessibility.

3. Retractable cords and cables
If you like to carry your laptop around the house and always find yourself disconnecting and reconnecting for Internet use, the 8 FT, Cat5e Retractable Ethernet Cord  and the Retractable Phone Cord are the perfect computer accessories for you! These handy and inexpensive wire organizers are a must for anyone who has ever wrestled with short, tangled or broken phone cords while trying to get connected. The auto-retractable spool provides 8 feet of phone cable in a compact, durable case. It fits right in your pocket!

4. Why Eliminate Cable Clutter and Get Organized?
Getting organized has countless benefits. An example of the benefits of organizing your mechanic shop:

1. If your belongings are put away properly, they'll be easy to find when you need them.
2. If your cables are well organized and protected by cord covers, not only will tripping hazards be prevented, you'll also be protecting your cables from harm and early replacement.
3. If you something goes missing, it will be obvious... and it'll take you less time to find it!
4. Make it a habit to take only one thing out at a time, and get into the habit of putting that item away as soon as you're finished with it. This simple tactic is one of the best ways to prevent clutter from piling up in the first place.
5. Keep the "task areas" in your home clean and organized... doing this will help you focus on the job at hand, and prevent you from feeling overwhelmed by a mess.

5. Color Code Your Wires
Here's an great  troubleshooting tip for home electronics: taking care of repairs or troubleshooting is much easier if you know which cables lead where. Heat shrink tubing in different colors can help you color code your cables, making them easier to manage. Applying heat shrink tubing to your cords also provides them with an extra layer of insulation, so you won't just be color coding your household cables... you'll also be protecting them from harm!
