Originally created by @jeremystretch on GitHub (Aug 21, 2025).

NetBox version

v4.3.6

Feature type

Data model extension

Proposed functionality

Introduce a mechanism for grouping individual cables into bundles. This could be accomplished by introducing e.g. a CableBundle model with which individual Cable objects can be associated to support correlation.

Note: This FR was prompted by #20085, but is limited to the correlation of multiple cables into a physical grouping, and does not entail modeling subsets of an individual cable (e.g. individual fiber strands).

Use case

In practice, multiple cables are often run in parallel between two common endpoints. For example, consider a bundle of 24 or 48 CAT6 cables connecting the rear sides of two patch panels.

Database changes

  • Add a new CableBundle model with a name or label
  • Add an optional bundle ForeignKey on the Cable model
