The also work great to tidy up patchcords - just make a small coil of excess patchcable and hold with one of these ties. Another use I found for the ONE WRAP straps was in cable management during my test of Fast Etherenet media converters . Like everybody else, I have a gazillion cables under my desk. I started using the straps to hold the cables in manageable loops, then I had a wild idea. My office is modular with cloth on the walls.
Cables are off the floor and hung on the wall with the straps.
