Mr. N

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I am working on a further Nutanix project and I have installed 8 x NX8155 servers. Each server has 6 x 10g TwinX cables and 2 x CAT6 copper connections. I am again trying to find any suitable cable manager due to the amount of physical cabling for each device.

Can someone please advise if there are any cable managers that Nutanix is aware of or via a third party as I am struggling to locate any. Thanks in advance. Simon.

For cable management, there have seen success with Panduit products.

That combined with a cable organizing kit and some velcro strips will be helpful.

Also to add, you can source cable arms from SuperMicro
