We have some of these in the data center. They fit the screws on the Cat 6500 line cards, and they slide on. So they a) can be installed/removed without taking line card out and b) do NOT go in front of the dreaded fan card. They are very simple, and flat, and have a row of slits for velcro / tie downs.
On a side-note, can't we all contact our sales teams and tell them about our interest in a high-density breakout cable solution for our industry? Having RJ45 on the actual blade makes for problems with both density and cable mess when swapping LCs. We need a 12+ high density connector so a 48 port card just has 4 cables coming out of it.
I know of the older cards, but we need something that'll work across vendors as well. Let's fix this cable mess in a more widely adoptable way!
