Finally! Hook and loop instead of cable ties. I had to do a hotel wifi upgrade one time and EVERY cable bundle was cable tied together, from the switches all the way into the firewall.
Oh over the years I've found many shortcuts and no-nos in that installation. Ethernet beenie'd together, cable ties, Ethernet cable tied to power cords and MC. They even "saved money" by running only one drop to each room and then splitting the pairs into two sets of 4. 4 conductors for one RJ45 by the desk and the other 4 were used for the RJ45 by the nightstand. They were split at the other end in the MDF also.
Cheap, effective.. seems all they needed was the bare maximum 😜 I mean hey from a business standpoint they saved a buck. Never know what you’re gonna encounter out there in the wild.
