What I do with the G11 is mimic what the DEC motor cable does by routing the camera cables (power and USB) between the clamp knobs, contained with a silicone band around both knobs. I use a fairly stiff USB 3 cable and I tape the cables together so that they form a gentle arch that keeps them out of trouble. Note I use a zip tie on the side of the Gemini bracket so I can control the length of the arch.

I've never had snag.
