Benefits of technology

[0016]The present invention relates to an improved cable management system and a method thereof, which enables monitoring and managing physically connected network nodes / devices (and patching between said devices), regardless of whether they are passive or active (e.g., switched OFF and switched ON network devices, respectively) over a local data network, such as the LAN (Local Area Network), Ethernet, and the like.

Problems solved by technology

However, managing and monitoring such cabling has become significantly complicated due to the large volume of cables (e.g., patch cords) that interconnect the plurality of network devices.
