Abstract:
A cable holding matrix for guiding cables, each having a proximal end with a connector, in a guided manner to prevent bending of the cable beyond a predetermined angle, comprising:a support member; a first plurality of posts attached to the support member and protruding from a surface of the support member in alignment; a second plurality of posts attached to the support member and protruding from a surface of the support member in alignment, the alignment of the second plurality intersecting the alignment of the first plurality at an acute angle; wherein adjacent posts of the second plurality are spaced such that cables may be placed and guided between two adjacent posts of the second plurality by contacting the cables with the posts at a portion of a side of the cable away from the proximal end and bent around one of the two adjacent posts to place the cable in linear alignment with a spacing between two adjacent posts of the first plurality.
