Abstract
An assembly for physically securing, and providing data and power to, a portable electronic consumer product that has opposed sides that each include one or more protrusions or depressions, where the portable electronic consumer product also has an electrical power input connector and a data input connector. The assembly has first and second separate housing portions that are constructed and arranged to be separably coupled together to thereby define a housing. The first and second housing portions each define one or more protrusions or depressions that complement the depressions or protrusions on a side of the portable electronic consumer product such that the housing forms a tight locational clearance fit with the consumer product when the first and second housing portions are coupled together around the opposed sides of the consumer product. There is a cord assembly that is constructed and arranged to carry electrical power and data, the cord assembly located in part inside the housing. There is a housing power connector that terminates the power carried by the cord assembly, and a housing data connector that terminates the data carried by the cord assembly; these connectors are both carried by the housing.
