[c-nsp] patch panels/cable management..

[Peter Kranz]

Looking for 'best practices' and recommendations for carrier rack cable
management.. 

I am mounting 2 6506-E's with fiber and copper linecards (primary /redundant
router) in the meet me room of a new data center, and want to end up with a
slick looking install vs the crazy cable tangle some of our gear is today.

Ideally I'd envision some kind of structured cabling pre plugged into all
the ports on the Cisco into some patch panels at the top of the rack. Then
when the data center brought in cross connects they would just need a jumper
to x-connect from their demark to this upper patch panel. 

Has anyone seen snazzy cable bundes designed to plug into 48 port line cards
and terminate into the back/front of a patch panel in a clean manner like
this..

open to suggestions, etc.. part#'s would be great too..

Thanks
