🔌 Cable Trunking and Fasteners
are components used to organize, protect, and secure cables — especially in structured installations like WiFi, electrical, or data systems.
🔹 Cable Trunking
Cable trunking is a protective casing or ducting system used to house and route electrical or data cables neatly along walls, ceilings, or floors.
✅ Purpose:
- Protects cables from damage, dust, and moisture
- Keeps cable runs neat and organized
- Reduces tripping hazards
- Makes future maintenance or upgrades easier
✅ Common Types:
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| PVC Trunking | Most common; plastic, lightweight, indoor use |
| Metal Trunking | Stronger and used in industrial settings |
| Floor Trunking | Flat and wide; used on the floor |
| Flexible Trunking | Can bend around corners or curves |
🖼️ Example Use:
Running CAT6 cables from a server room to classrooms across ceilings or walls inside trunking to keep things tidy and safe.
🔹 Cable Fasteners
Fasteners are small tools or clips used to hold cables in place. They're essential when you're not using trunking or to hold trunking itself to a surface.
✅ Common Fasteners:
| Fastener Type | Use |
|---|---|
| Cable Ties (Zip Ties) | Bundle cables together tightly |
| Cable Clips | Nail-on or adhesive clips to hold cables on walls |
| Trunking Screws | Fix PVC trunking to walls or ceilings |
| Velcro Straps | Reusable alternative to zip ties |
| Cable Clamps | Secure larger cable bundles or conduits |
🛠️ Summary:
| Item | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Cable Trunking | Route and protect cables neatly |
| Cable Fasteners | Fix and hold cables or trunking |
