00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:09.000
great cable management is pretty hard it takes a lot of time and a lot of cable

00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:15.759
ties and even if you get it looking nice it's a lot of work to make

00:00:12.559 --> 00:00:19.680
adjustments but that ends today with the

00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:19.680
LTT Store.com cable management

00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:27.960
system in front of me is everything you can get from the cable management system

00:00:25.240 --> 00:00:32.840
first up is the small Arch kit it comes with five arches and is commonly used

00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:37.000
for single cable runs or small cable runs second is the medium Arch kit it

00:00:35.079 --> 00:00:41.320
comes with three arches and they are a little bit bigger to let you accompany a

00:00:38.879 --> 00:00:45.239
few more cables or some larger cables moving to some of the bigger ones the

00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:49.680
large Arch kit it comes with two and they're more for bundling multiple power

00:00:47.239 --> 00:00:54.520
cables or a number of Ethernet runs and the final of the Arches the big one the

00:00:52.039 --> 00:00:59.199
extra large these can hold a ton of weight every Arch kit you order will

00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:03.879
also come with its own plate set that has the number of plates you need plus

00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:08.880
some screws to mount it we also offer a VHB kit or we offer a silicone kit as

00:01:07.080 --> 00:01:12.680
well let's see how and when you'd use each of these plates but first a word

00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:57.119
going to need to use one of our plate kits for mounting first get an idea of

00:01:55.399 --> 00:02:01.840
where you want your cable managers on your desk we've found that about 1T spe

00:01:59.920 --> 00:02:06.560
facing is good to keep cables taut on the underside of a desk once you get

00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:08.800
your layout grab your standard plates

00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:14.599
peel off the backing and hold for about 3 or 4 seconds after

00:02:10.920 --> 00:02:16.680
that grab a screw and screw it in if you

00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:20.920
got the VHB upgrade kit grab some isopropyl alcohol or other Degreaser and

00:02:19.519 --> 00:02:25.480
wipe down the area that you're going to apply the plates to let it dry PE off

00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:30.040
the backing you're going to want to hold it for about 10 seconds do make sure

00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:34.239
that this is where you want it cuz it is permanent once it's attached if you got

00:02:32.239 --> 00:02:38.800
a silicone upgrade kit there are two common uses one is for applying it on

00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:42.920
top of one of your existing plates to give you a little bit more stick in

00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:47.599
terms of sliding alternatively you can apply it to the side of a standit desk

00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:52.200
or a PC case or anything else that's made out of a magnetic metal if you are

00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:54.840
using the silicone the magnets won't stick as

00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:00.239
well but they'll stay in place better

00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:03.920
and it helps minimize the chance of scratching anything that you put them on

00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:07.519
now we're going to move on to the less intuitive parts of the cable management

00:03:05.799 --> 00:03:13.959
system the power brick holder comes in a set of two there are your two

00:03:10.720 --> 00:03:16.840
holders with your power brake holder you

00:03:13.959 --> 00:03:20.720
get some extra long cable ties these are designed to give you enough room to fit

00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:25.000
all the way around even the biggest of power bricks when getting ready to use

00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:30.680
your power bar holder grab your cable tie and slide it into the holder just

00:03:28.640 --> 00:03:35.280
like that once your two cable ties are on grab your power brick and wrap it

00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:44.120
up if your power brick is something a fair bit smaller you want to line it up

00:03:40.920 --> 00:03:46.920
so one side is wrapping around it then

00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:50.959
you can wrap the other side around the cable one other thing I find Handy if

00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:55.799
you're taking this on the go you can wrap up a bunch of your extra cable in

00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:59.239
the cable tie if you're wrapping this around

00:03:57.760 --> 00:04:03.040
something really small you'll end up with too much cable tie and it won't be

00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:07.280
able to stick properly if that's the case grab a pair of scissors and cut off

00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:10.959
the extra the power bar key in my opinion is one of the most versatile

00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:16.560
things in the entire offering it's also a set of two it has three pieces you

00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:19.840
unscrew it and out pops a little gripper

00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:21.280
that slides into a keyhole slot on a

00:04:19.840 --> 00:04:25.919
variety of different products when you're attaching this to a power bar you

00:04:22.960 --> 00:04:31.720
want to unscrew it slide it into the hole and then pull it to one side and

00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:31.720
give it a tighten

00:04:32.320 --> 00:04:38.039
and it's attached almost every Power bar will have two attachment points and

00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:43.639
that's to stop it from rotating so let's get the second one in and

00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:45.560
then this mount it up and these magnets

00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:50.120
are plenty strong if your Keyhole slot is really

00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:54.560
deep you can take off the thumb tab entirely to get a little bit of extra

00:04:51.800 --> 00:05:00.199
reach but if it's really shallow you can flip it over and it'll take up a little

00:04:56.639 --> 00:05:00.199
bit of extra space

00:05:00.960 --> 00:05:08.759
in addition to that if you unthread it all the way the inside thread is a/4 20

00:05:06.039 --> 00:05:13.039
for all of your hacking needs like your own 3D printed Creations here we have a

00:05:11.080 --> 00:05:17.440
hanger and an Electronics enclosure that's wall mounted and some other

00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:21.280
things for inspiration camera mounts and we attached our battery

00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:26.039
charger to the underside of our Shelf how convenient and for the cable

00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:30.680
tie holder has a nice little cut to be able to slide a cable tie through and

00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:33.160
either run one cable along it or attach

00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:38.000
a bunch of things and you get four with your cable tie holder set comes some of

00:05:35.840 --> 00:05:41.759
our standard cable ties but a set of four just the number you need one of the

00:05:40.600 --> 00:05:47.319
reasons that you might want to use the cable tie holder over some of the other arches is it's in line with your cables

00:05:46.039 --> 00:05:51.759
which means you don't need a lot of space beside them however you do give up

00:05:49.880 --> 00:05:56.280
some flexibility in terms of ease of replacement for using

00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:59.680
these another way you can do it if you know you're going to be detaching more

00:05:57.479 --> 00:06:04.840
than one cable at a time from it so you can wrap the cable tie around it

00:06:01.919 --> 00:06:07.240
first peel it back a bit and slide this tail

00:06:10.479 --> 00:06:18.240
through the cable tie holders also give you a fair bit of flexibility for

00:06:15.599 --> 00:06:22.199
attaching ornaments or whatever else you want to with the cable ties we're really

00:06:20.599 --> 00:06:27.840
