It's incredible what a wire cleanup can do...

[Red Squirrel]

We decided to cleanup the wires under our desks since we could not figure out why we needed so many power bars and extension cords for 2 computers. Well, this is what ended up being redundant:

Basically all daisy chained and stuff, lot of loose stuff that was plugged in to a power bar with nothing on the other end lol. With all that, there is 2 UPSes (in use) but the PC was not even plugged into it LOL.

Thought this was amusing.

Now you are going to go crazy when half of the stuff won't start. 😉

I thought this was going to be about a patch panel cable clean up job.

I bet that picture is of a bunch of unused cable just thrown on a desk for effect.

It's just the FSM before He went Wireless, thus adding the capability of flight.

I really want to do something about my cable hell, but it's hard to motivate myself when I know I'm not going to be in this place for longer than a few more months.

cable hell > doing work to prevent cable hell

I just let my wires roam free.

Should put up a pic of my cable hell. It's organized and yet still messy. Bah.

 

[Modelworks]

I cleaned up my cables by consolidating the power adapters. I had about 6 of them. So I wired them up to a single large adapter than can power them all.

The cleanliness will only last so long.....

Actually it is, but all that was under the desk, hooked up, yet removing it did nto stop anything from working. 😛 That's how bad it was lol. In one area we had 2 power bars for 2 things. I don't even know how it got that bad.
