seems to be what I want; can't remember them being that expensive.

Anyone recommend a budget supplier?

I have just bought some of these, on the recommendation of the team.

Probably a dumb question, but how is the cable tie supposed to work?

Thanks

Scratch that, I've worked it out. The slot under the concave cable moulding
was hiding from me (and others).


Yup, cable in from the side, lay it in the trough, and cable tie under
the trough and over the cable.


Yeah - I just couldn't see that you could go *under* the trough; I was looking for a couple of holes or similar.

The IT dept. at work were similarly stumped, but I guess they wanted to go home as well...
