OK, so this is from a mediocre builder, but I have built nearly 30
modules (including Blacet stuff). Use a tie for all coax, but you
don't have to lay the cable flat: let it do what it wants. The tie
acts as a very effective strain relief. Just make sure the cable
isn't scraping too much against sharp edges.
