A parallel path cable routing system that incorporates parallel paths into a single system. The parallel path cable routing system includes a first cable trough having a cable pathway and a second cable trough having a cable pathway. The first cable trough is parallel to the second cable trough. The parallel path cable routing system also includes a single component having a cable pathway that is coupled to both the first and second cable troughs. The single component connects the first cable trough pathway to the second cable trough pathway to allow the cables to run from the first cable trough to the second cable trough thereby transitioning the cables in the parallel path cable routing system.
