I bought 3 executive desks from Walmart, arranged them in a U-shape, and put them in the center of the room.  I put the equipment (modern and vintage) facing outward.  Cables and cords are hidden by the gear, yet easily accessable inside the U (and by walking upright, too).  No crawling under, no pulling anything out, no opening windows.  Coax,  AC, and 4-inch copper strap come up through the floor, inside the U.
