Features for cable managers and other electronic equipment structures

A cable manager includes a backbone assembly and at least one side wall extending from the backbone assembly. The at least one side wall optionally includes one or more cable finger units. The backbone assembly includes a spine member having an extruded construction. The spine member includes one or more channels extending substantially an entire length thereof to facilitate easy attachment, removal and/or repositioning of a structure relative to the spine member. The cable manager optionally includes an accessory rod, a half-spool assembly, a cable finger accessory, a strap/buckle accessory, and/or a door assembly having an interference-free hinge set.

Gate apparatus with springless automatic return gate

A gate apparatus having an automatically returning gate, an upper latch operated by an upper button, and a lower latch operated by an upper finger handle. Each of the latches must be opened to open the gate. The gate returns without the aid of a spring to a position close to the closed position or to the closed position by the structure of a pivot or hinge connection between the gate and the frame of the gate. Gate tubes are rectangular in section for their entire length. Wood panels are included in the gate and excluded from other portions of the gate apparatus to make the gate stand out to the user seeking to open the gate.

Accessory positioning system for cable manager

An accessory positioning system for a cable manager includes a spine, a lateral member, an accessory rod, and an accessory. The spine has an extruded construction and defines a y-axis of a three-dimensional space. The lateral member has an extruded construction and defines an x-axis of the three-dimensional space. The spine is slidably paired with the lateral member to facilitate infinite adjustability of the spine along the x-axis within a range defined by the lateral member. The accessory rod has an extruded construction and defines a z-axis of the three-dimensional space. The accessory rod protrudes from the spine and is slidably paired therewith to facilitate infinite adjustability of the accessory rod along the y-axis within a range defined by the spine. The accessory is slidably paired with the accessory rod to facilitate infinite adjustability of the accessory along the z-axis within a range defined by the accessory rod.
