A cable pathway system has a base with a bottom, a generally planar top surface, a first side, and a second side. The base is configured to be secured to an electronic equipment enclosure and also has an aperture formed therein and a wall positioned adjacent to the aperture. The wall has a curved surface that extends from the top surface to the bottom. A first sidewall extends from the top surface along the first side and extends generally perpendicular to the top surface and substantially along the length of the first side. A second sidewall also extends from the top surface along the second side and extends generally perpendicular to the top surface and substantially along the length of the second side.

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for providing a cable pathway system, comprising the steps of: positioning a base on an electronic equipment enclosure such that a bottom of the base is adjacent the electronic equipment enclosure, a first sidewall extends from the base generally aligned with a front of the enclosure, and a second sidewall extends from the base generally aligned with a back of the enclosure; aligning an aperture formed in the base with an opening formed in a top cover of the enclosure; and securing the base to the enclosure, wherein the base further comprises a wall positioned adjacent to the aperture, and wherein the wall comprises a curved surface that extends from a top surface of the base to the bottom. 2. The method for providing a cable pathway system of claim 1, wherein the radius of curvature of the curved surface is 3 inches. 3. A method for providing a cable pathway system, comprising the steps of: positioning a base on an electronic equipment enclosure such that a bottom of the base is adjacent the electronic equipment enclosure, a first sidewall extends from the base generally aligned with a front of the enclosure, and a second sidewall extends from the base generally aligned with a back of the enclosure; aligning an aperture formed in the base with an opening formed in a top cover of the enclosure; and securing the base to the enclosure, wherein positioning the base comprises the steps of: positioning a first section of the base on the electronic equipment enclosure such that the first sidewall is generally aligned with the front of the enclosure; positioning a second section of the base on the electronic equipment enclosure such that the second sidewall is generally aligned with the back of the enclosure; and aligning non-planar side surfaces of the first and second sections such that the first and second sections mate together to form the base. 4. A method for providing a cable pathway system, comprising the steps of: positioning a base on an electronic equipment enclosure such that a bottom of the base is adjacent the electronic equipment enclosure, a first sidewall extends from the base generally aligned with a front of the enclosure, and a second sidewall extends from the base generally aligned with a back of the enclosure; aligning an aperture formed in the base with an opening formed in a top cover of the enclosure; securing the base to the enclosure; mounting a first support adjacent the first sidewall of the base; mounting a second support adjacent the second sidewall of the base; securing a cross bar between the first and second supports such that the cross bar extends over the base; and securing a cable through to the cross bar.
