As silly as it is, that's actually a pretty standard way for outsourced/contracted companies to transfer gear between data centers. You'll notice that there aren't any labels on the remaining cable portions; this is done intentionally as well for security purposes. Typically one company will be contracted to "unrack and stack" and get the shit shipping ready; this crew will clip all the network cables. They'll pack it up and load it onto the truck, then put a seal on the truck's loading door after closing it so that it will be easier to detect tampering. A second independent shipping company will be contracted to transfer the gear, and then the original company that did the clipping will do the install/cabling at the new data center after verifying the integrity of the sealing label.
Not to mention that not all DCs are built the same, and typically (if you are doing it right) your cables are just long enough to connect devices in the current environment without enough slack to plug in elsewhere. Standard practice is to not bring any of your cables with you when you transfer to a new location, and recable everything with new stuff.

RIght on. Rockin that turbo button with a graphics card, hopefully, running something by Tseng Labs.
(Small possibility I'm old)
Had something like this for a video card. VESA ISA bus, before PCI, with expandable SIMM memory slots so you could run 1024x768+ resolution.
Or how about the Sound Blaster AWE32 with expandable SIMM memory slots. Also recall having an AWE64 that had a chip slot for voice-to-text functionality, but couldn't find a picture of that board. I had both.
