a rack chassis including a first rack wall, a second rack wall located opposite the rack chassis from the first rack wall, a third rack wall located between the first rack wall and the second rack wall, a first rack entrance defined between the first rack wall and the second rack wall, and a second rack entrance defined between the first rack wall and the second rack wall and opposite the rack chassis from the first rack entrance;
a computing device housing that is defined by the rack chassis between the first rack wall and the third rack wall;
a rack front-to-rear cable routing device that is located at a first location on the rack chassis between the second rack wall and the third rack wall, that extends between the first rack entrance and the second rack entrance, and that defines a first protected cable conduit along a length of the rack front-to-rear cable routing device between the first rack entrance and the second rack entrance that is configured to house and protect a first cable that is connected to each of a first port that is located adjacent the first rack entrance and that is included on a first computing device in the computing device housing that is separate from the rack front-to-rear cable routing device, and a second port that is located adjacent the second rack entrance and that is included on a second computing device in the computing device housing that is separate from the rack front-to-rear cable routing device; and
a rack chassis coupling feature that is included on the rack front-to-rear cable routing device, that couples the rack front-to-rear cable routing device to the rack chassis at the first location, and that configured to couple the first rack front-to-rear cable routing device to a plurality of second locations on the rack chassis that are different than the first location.
