Should the cable manager take strain away from the RJ45 connectors?

Yes. Route the patch leads so their weight and spare length are supported by the cable-management path rather than hanging from the RJ45 plug.

The connector should make the electrical connection, not serve as a miniature cable hanger.

Does the cable manager determine the minimum bend radius of the cable? Is it okay to force another cable into a nearly full ring? Why not just pull the whole cable bundle tight with cable ties? Can I use hook-and-loop straps as well as the rack cable manager?
