cable spaghetti
Wiring nightmare mess
Cable spaghetti is a tangled mess of cables, wires, or cords—the chaotic result of multiple devices connected without organization.
The image evokes noodles jumbled in a bowl.
Common behind entertainment centers, under desks, or in server rooms: I spent an hour sorting through the cable spaghetti behind my TV.
Also called a rat's nest.
