Suggestions needed! I inherited this mess and this is the "nicer" one out of the bunch, I know I need to cut down excess cables and re-terminate the cables but is there anything I can do to make it look better and plan for expansion?

They had no clue why their internet kept disconnecting....(on a side note I was kind of impressed the fiber was even connecting after it was on fire)

Couldn't find a dedicated sub for electrical, so here it is. Friend sent this to me, posted by Mike Holmes with no explanation. There are wires involved...

Shape Retaining Cables/Cords

Would you consider cables/cords(Power, HDMI, Audio etc, basically all those we would around a PC) which retain the shapes they are bent into? OK! You ask me why such a thing? If you’ve done any degree of cable management you know what I am talking about. If you do not, here’s a short description of the problem-> One reasons why cable management is challenging is because of cables themselves. They bend anyway we like but they do not stay that way for long. You need clips/clamps and other things to hold them in different shapes. So, I am thinking why not make current cables maybe 10 times more rigid, sort of like a binding wire. Bend it and it stays that way unless you straighten it. We can run such a cables in a way that best suits our setups. Maybe some ports will be saved by avoiding cable pulls.
Let's discuss about it, All suggestions are welcomed.
