The electronic device includes a housing that surrounds one or more components of the device and has front, back, top and bottom sides. At least one port is located on at least one of the front and back sides of the housing and configured to receive an end plug of a network cable and communicatively coupled to the one or more components. The housing includes at least one opening formed on at least one of the front and back sides, where the opening is configured to allow the network cable to pass therethrough.
