Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for transmitting data and a reusable structure for holding a data transmission unit such as a computer cable and a number of adapter tips configured to attach to different plug types. The cable may be wound around the structure, and the tips may be stored in recesses in the structure having at least three sides and at least one opening. The recesses may be parallel and the tips may be held in place with an interference or snap fit. The unit and tips may be held at least partially external to the structure, which may be a monolithic plastic body. Opposing substantially concave surfaces may be provided on opposite ends upon which to wind the cable. A method of providing cable connections includes providing the structure and teaching to wind the cable around the structure and to hold the tips at least partially within the structure.
