Nice solution Monte.

I am interested in this as well as my cables were getting to be a mess of stuff.

I used black electrical tape to tape the cables for the different cameras separately.

In my case in one setup, I have a camera, a filter wheel both with power supply and USB 2 cables, then a guiding camera with 3 cables.

So I taped the camera and filter wheel cables in one bundle and the guide camera in another.

A common power supply/USB hub would be nice.

I believe there is a company that makes these in the US. From memory it is called Astrohub.
