Abstract

A method of cable deployment includes initially performing a cable deployment setup, using a cable management and labeling unit, at a cable pulling location; providing labels for a present cable pull, using the cable management and labeling unit, to label each cable of a cable set with a head label and providing a corresponding tail label for each cable; pulling the cable set to destination locations using a pathway guide and patch panel organizer to enter a pathway and using an anti-twist and tensile pressure equalizer claw tool to guide the cable set along the pathway to the destination locations; and staging each cable of the cable set using the pathway guide and patch panel organizer.

Abstract

A structured cabling tool includes a lower frame base that supports cable axles, the tool being extended in a ready for use condition and compacted in a ready for transport condition; frame arms supported by the lower frame base, the frame arms fixable upright orthogonal to the lower frame base in the ready for use condition and coextensive with the lower frame in the ready for transport condition; a cable sorting threader supported between the frame arms; and a revolvable tape segmenting spindle supported by the frame arms below the cable sorting threader.

Abstract

A cable sorter-feeder system includes a cable management board and a cable feeder mounted on a support assembly. The cable feeder collapses into transport configuration, located interior to the support assembly and in substantially the same plane as the support assembly. In the transport configuration, lower legs of the support assembly are folded back and up at leg joint. Extendable legs allow the system to be sized for ceilings of different heights with base supports and top supports pressing firmly against the floor and ceiling respectively to securely fix the system therebetween. Extendable legs are drawn into a stored position and locked by a lock-in unit.
