Anyone got any spare cable management arms for Dell PowerEdge 2950?

In a fit of madness the old NM appears to have thrown away the Cable Management arms/pack from the two 2950 Dell servers when they were moved in the summer. I have come to tidy things up and can't find the arms anywhere.


Its the black mesh brackets that fit onto the back of the server rails.

Does anyone have any going or know where or if i can get any from anywhere before i go to Dell?

there are many respected data center experts who assert that cable management arms can actually hinder when it comes to managing cable at the rear of you're server racks. They say do away with them all together and use hook and loop ties or equivalent, to route and tie the cables along the sides of the rack.

it's one viewpoint, and i'm not sure i agree entirely......but always a good idea to keep the cable management arms even if you don't intend to use them.
