The AnExer cable management tray is designed to handle the "cable spaghetti" often found under home offices. Constructed from 1.2mm carbon steel, the mesh tray provides a ventilated environment for power bricks, which helps manage heat buildup. The no-drill C-clamp system allows for a secure attachment to the desk edge, protecting the furniture from permanent damage. Specifications show the tray can support up to 10kg, though centering the heaviest power adapters over the clamp points helps prevent the front edge from dipping.
The mesh pattern is a functional feature that allows for multiple attachment points for zip ties or hook-and-loop fasteners. While the steel tray is highly rigid, the auxiliary pen holder is made from polypropylene and is best suited for lightweight office supplies. Features of this system include:
- Steel plate construction for high rigidity.
- Wide-mouth clamp that fits various desk thicknesses.
- Bundled cable clips to help route wires along the desk legs.
It is important to note that while the title references laptops, the physical dimensions are better suited for holding laptop chargers and peripheral cables rather than the computer itself. For desks made of softer wood like pine, the high-density pads on the clamp help distribute pressure to minimize the risk of surface pitting. Regular checks of the screw tension are recommended to ensure the tray remains level under constant load.
If you require a solid shelf that extends above the desk rather than hanging below it, the wood-grain desk riser provides additional surface area for monitors.
