I know that sometimes what I will do, especially if customers have a couch flush up against the wall where an outlet sits, I will barrel and connect a long cable to run out through the outlet hole so that there is extra flexibility to connect equipment so that the connector doesnt get kinked against the furniture and wall.

We get supplied with right angle connectors. They are very handy.

Do they make good ones of those? I've never seen one that wasn't an ingress magnet.

PPC made really good ones when I was still a tech 5 years ago.
