Do any of our fellow nanog members have experience with cable management on 6509/6513 cisco switches? We're upgrading infrastructure in some of our facilities,.. and until it came to cable management, the switches seemed to be a great idea... 8 48port blades.. pose a challenge.. or a problem.. Pictures are welcomed... off-list contact would be great. Thanks
http://www.cecommunication.com/pages/cablemgmtproducts.htmlI have no affiliation with them nor do I even have any - but they do look nice. They claim to not block blade swaps or fan tray removal.
If you notice about half the pics/links posted - folks have ALL cabling leaving the 6500 to one side. If you don't do this, you must disconnect cables to get the fan tray out. The folks fanning to both sides are either ignorant or overly optimistic (no pun intended WRT your email address) :)
