Abstract

A cable storage wheel for communication cables is provided. The cable storage wheel has a channel that receives the communication cable and a plurality of cable tie features. The cable tie features are positioned for receipt of cable ties to secure the communication cable in the channel in a manner that minimizes or eliminates contact between the wire ties and the communication cable. In this manner, the cable storage wheel is configured and designed to encourage the user to wrap the wire ties around the storage wheel and, not the communication cable. The cable tie features are, in some embodiments, slots, notches, openings, channel supports, and any combinations thereof.
