Abstract
Disclosed are pluggable cable channels having internal cavities and passageway conduits to provide removable holding devices for data and or power cables in electrical and electronic encasements. Holding a data and or power cable in the pluggable cable channel allows different cables to be used in the same channel-way by changing the plug, thus assisting in the preservation of the enclosure investment and use for different applications. Some embodiments include a cavity to hold the end of the cable, a keyway to pass a length of the cable into the body conduit, and a routing channel in the body to exit the cable to a specific location in relationship to the plug, a set screw or clamp to secure the cable to a location in the plug body, and a body flange to attach the plug to the encasement. The flange may be angled to mate flush with perpendicular and non-perpendicular to the channel-way.
