Dedicated hanging wall?

Drawer full of compartments sorted by function?

Big ole bag of cables covered in wotsits?

Edit: Okay I was looking for ideas, but you guys are all shambles.

< 3m cables: I wrap them into a neat circle and put them in several cardboard boxes sorted by function/extension (e.g. USB-A, USB-C, Power+Kettle).
- 1 extra box for miscellaneous types (e.g. a USB-C to USB-A would go in there)
- All the boxes go into a single drawer.
For long cables: I wrap them into large neat circles and then they all go into the same tote bag hanging under the stairs

Right now, big ol' bag. Video cables at the bottom with USB and Ethernet cables separated in two smaller bags on top. Plan is to eventually get more drawers and make some of these dividers https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3559789 but I have a feeling I'll never get round to it.
