Abstract
A protective cable cover separates cable routing from patchcords and cross-connect wire in a wiring trough. The cable cover is placed over the cable conductors on a wiring block cable organizer. The cable cover may be removed to allow for the addition or replacement of building cables without having to remove any adjacent patchcords. A circuit designation strip and row marking pads are provided to designate rows and circuit connections. A strike engages a latch on a patchcord plug to releasably retain the plug in engagement with the connecting block. Mounting holes are formed integral with the cable cover to engage latches on the cable organizer for releasably mounting the cable cover on the cable organizer.
