affixing with cable ties
Explanation:
Colson appears to be a make of cable ties, so I'm taking a guess that colsoneren may mean fastening with cable ties - it seems to fit the context.

agree  Evgeny Artemov (X): Perhaps "tied with with Colson [cable] ties"

agree  Michael Beijer: maybe sth like ‘tied/bundled/gathered together using cables ties’ (because the src says: bij elkaar gecolsoneerd)

Explanation:
Strange Flemish, but I think this is what they mean: See e.g.: http://www.leviton.com/OA_HTML/ibcGetAttachment.jsp?cItemId=... + http://www.vdvworks.com/UncleTed/install.html ('consolidation points')

as in: ‘pulling and consolidating cables’

or: ‘consolidation with cable ties’ (based on a combination of my own and Rachel's answers)
