Frequently asked questions

Do I need to drill?

Some trays screw in, others use strong adhesive pads. Check the listing — adhesive works on smooth desks, but drilled mounts won't fall.

How many cables fit?

A standard tray holds 4-8 cables. Sleeves pack 5-8 into one zippered bundle. Measure your cable count before buying.
