Abstract
A cable management assembly based upon adjustable link members for use in guiding cables. A joint connector is positioned along an inner surface of the link member having two shanks that are spaced apart and extend outward from a first edge of the bottom wall terminating with a ball. A receptacle connector is positioned along an opposite edge of the bottom wall and formed from two sockets sized for receipt of each ball. The ball and socket assembly includes a first raised ridge to capture the ball for spacing an adjoining link member a first distance, a second raised ridge is used to capture the ball for spacing the adjoining link member a second distance, and a third raised ridge is used to capture the ball for spacing the adjoining link member a third distance. The link members allow angular placement for optimum cable management.
