Abstract: A cabling connection system provides cabling connection for an equipment box. A unit input connector is placed on the equipment box. A unit output connector is also placed on the equipment box. The unit input connector and the unit output connector are of identical shape and gender. A cover plate is placed on the equipment box over the unit input connector and the unit output connector. The cover plate has a first opening which allows access to the unit input connector and has a second opening which allows access to the unit output connector. The first opening is a different shape than the second opening. This results in the first opening acting as a first keying feature for the unit input connector and the second opening acting as a second keying feature for the unit output connector.

Abstract: A one piece cable tie for securing one or more wires/cables together and to a supporting post of a cable management bar. The cable tie includes an elongated flexible planar strap having a plurality of ratchet teeth disposed on opposite sides of the strap. An integral locking head, located at one end of the strap, has a channel therethrough for receiving and releasably restraining the strap ratchet teeth when the opposite strap end is inserted through the locking head channel. Located in proximity to the locking head is a post retaining loop disposed transversely to the strap body. The retaining loop has a passageway shaped to receive and retain the post of an associated cable management bar, so that when positioned and looped over the post, the cable tie secures the cables together and also provides support thereto.
