How do I manage computer cords around a mobile pedestal?

Mobile pedestals and computer cords often conflict when the pedestal is pushed under the desk — cords can catch on the casters or be pinched between the pedestal and desk underframe. Best practices: (1) Route power and data cords through a cable tray mounted to the desk underframe before pushing the pedestal under; (2) Use a short power strip mounted to the desk back panel so cords don't hang on the floor; (3) Leave 2"–3" gap between the pedestal back and the desk grommet or cable port; (4) Use cable anchors or velcro ties to secure cord bundles to the desk structure rather than letting them hang freely.
