Micro USB Cable Retainer for Redpark Gigabit + PoE adapter for iPad

thingiverse

This was designed to prevent a micro USB cable from coming unplugged from a Redpark Gigabit + PoE Adapter for iPad (L6-NETPOE). It also acts as a strain relief for the connector. In an ideal world this wouldn't be necessary - the micro USB cable they supply has a high-quality feel to it, and the plug itself has a decent spring-loaded "grip" on the connector. Still, to avoid a second service trip, I'm installing these on all of our semi-exposed locations, where it would be easy to either unplug the connector by accident, or break it by handling it roughly (which is a greater possibility). The photo shows the retainer on half-way - once there is room insert the micro USB cable, then carefully slide the cover on fully. You may need to apply pressure to the cable to prevent it from deflecting. The ethernet cable should fit snugly against the wall fo the adapter, locking in the USB cable. Depending on your printer's tolerance, you may have to tweak the design a bit (ie, print at 100.1%).
