Abstract
A cable management guide couples with a component rack to support and guide cables. The cable management guide has offset brackets attachable to posts of the component rack to unobtrusively position cable stays into the interior of the component rack for enhanced positioning of the cables. Each of the cable stays includes a support member to retain one or more cables and a guard member that keeps the cables on the support member within the cable stay. For each cable stay, the guard member is offset from and overlaps with the support member to provide an entrance gap between the support member and the guard member for cables to be slipped into and out of the cable stay.
