Abstract

A cable management assembly and method of assembly. The trough assembly includes first and second trough members each having first and second upstanding sidewalls extending from a base defining a generally U-shaped trough which defines first and second cable pathways respectively for receiving at least one telecommunications cable. A first end of the first trough member and a second end of the second trough member define a snap-together mating arrangement which couples through longitudinal sliding movement the first trough member to the second trough member so that the first cable pathway communicates with the second cable pathway.
