A cable tether for managing an electric vehicle charging cable is described. The cable tether comprises a housing that houses a spring clamp and a compression pad. The housing including an opening for the electric vehicle charging cable to pass through. The spring clamp includes two openings that allow a shaft member attached to an arm of the electric vehicle charging station to pass through, where a first segment of the spring clamp includes a first opening of the two openings and a portion that extends into the first opening, and where the portion that extends into the first opening slots into a cutout portion of the shaft member as the shaft member is passed through the two openings to latch the spring clamp onto the shaft member. The compression pad that is attached to the housing of the cable tether for gripping the electric vehicle charging cable.

An electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) includes a thermal management system that includes a dual-sided heatsink that includes a first side that faces internal ambient air of the EVSE and a second side that faces external ambient air. A first fan circulates the internal ambient air of the EVSE across the first side to reject heat from the internal ambient air into the first side. A first airflow guide guides the internal ambient air across the first side of the dual-sided heatsink. A second fan draws external ambient air that flows across the second side to reject heat from the second side out of the thermal management system. A second airflow guide guides the external ambient air across the second side. An airflow seal prevents the external ambient air and the internal ambient air from mixing.
