Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for facilitating cable management. Thus, an extensible articulated arm is disclosed for stacking/organizing cables and cords in-line with an exhausting airflow. The articulated arm typically includes a series of pivotally connected elongated members. The articulated arm is generally mounted relative to a structure near an exhausting airflow. An elongated cable management conduit may be secured relative to each elongated member, such elongated cable management conduit generally defining an elongated channel adapted for receiving one or more cables/cords therethrough. Each elongated cable management conduit is typically configured such the width of the elongated cable management conduit is greater than its height. Thus, the cables/cords received through the elongated channel are arranged relative to a plane in-line with the exhausting airflow. This aerodynamic design enables the cable management conduits to act as airfoils in promoting efficient airflow of exhausting air around the articulated arm.
