Now you’re bringing back memories – the time before zip ties. I used to build military systems (had real honest to god magnetic core store – emp proof) and we had to lace all the cable bundles to tight specs.

Nice job Dane! There’s some sort of satisfaction had by knowing the guy who’s running my circuit at home isn’t just a numbers guy, but actually a telco nerd like me

I don’t think I can ever move out of the Bay. I don’t know what I would do without Sonic.

I remember the first time I saw this in a CO; did some research and learned that most telcos have an exact spec about how the lacing is to be done for different cable styles.

For a while, cable lacing has seemed to be a dying art… nice to see someone learning the trade. Very cool!

I wish we could lace all of our telecom cabling, but I just don’t have the time and end up using velcro wraps…
