On Desk Power Sockets<\/h4>\n

Firstly, we’d recommend purchasing an on desk power module.<\/p>\n

\"On<\/a><\/p>\n

On desk power modules are incredibly popular and common throughout offices and homes office set ups. This is because they provide a range of power outlets designed specifically for office \/ computer use, making connection easy and always within reach.<\/p>\n

Cable Management System<\/h4>\n

There are plenty of options available to choose from to complete your cable management set up. These include Cable ports, cable baskets, cable trays, cable knuckles etc; but to save you from hours of research, we’ve narrowed down a list of our most popular cable management options.<\/p>\n

The below parts are all used to support and safely route cables through from the power unit to power source.<\/p>\n

CABLE PORTS & ACCESS PLATES<\/a><\/h6>\n

Cable ports (or cable grommets) and access plates can be a ring of rubber, metal, plastic or even wood and are designed to be push fit into a pre-cut grommet hole.<\/p>\n

The grommet \/ cable port ring subsequently lines the grommet hole and protects any cables from sharp edges; allowing for cables to safely pass through the desktop and to the power source or cable basket.<\/p>\n

CABLE BASKETS<\/a> & CABLE TRAYS<\/a><\/h6>\n

Cable baskets and cable trays both fix to the underside of the desktop. This\u00a0 allows for power and data cables to be neatly channelled along the length of tray, from the power unit to the power supply.<\/p>\n

Both options simply suspend cables and wiring from the underside of the desk and keeps them off the floor; subsequently improving office aesthetics as well as the longevity of the cables, while preventing possible trip hazards and reducing the risk of damage to the connecting power unit.<\/p>\n
