Thanks to this discussion about the way cable installations should be dressed, an often overlooked troublespot is clear: using zipties on cable is common! It was drilled into my head from very early in my career that zipties and cabling are a bad match!
Well, according to BICSI, it's not so much that ties are bad, it is the way they are cinched so tightly they can damage cables. See this reference from ITSIMM:
Despite the recommendation to use 'hook & loop straps', I would guess most installers don't use anything - and those that do, use zipties.
What do you (or your installation teams) use? Zipties? Velcro straps? Nothing?
