Need some help with brain fart what do you call this thing - ztirffritz - 10-21-2009

I need to buy a cover so that I can lay a cable across the floor and people can walk on it. What do you call that cover? I need to look it up on Staples' website but I have no clue what it is called. Don't bother sending me links to any other sites that are cheaper because I'm required to purchase it from Staples...our financial director takes kick-backs from them and I get in trouble if I don't make all my purchases from Staples.

Cyberguys calls it a Cable Safety Strip.

Edit: They also call it a "cable cover."

Well, when I've used them at conference centers they call them cable ramps. But I don't see any on the staples site. I'll look some more...

Thanks. I tried every conceivable combination of cable, cover, floor, safety, with no luck. Concealer was the magic word apparently.
