ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for routing, holding, and hiding cables associated with electronics devices. The preferred embodiment is an extrusion for application to a surface of an electronics device or incorporation into the framework thereof defining a groove capable of routing, holding, and hiding the electrical cable(s). The extrusion has a cross-section comprising a plurality of sides connected to one another to define a desired shape for the extrusion. A pair of the sides have a generally V-shaped orientation with respect to one another thereby forming a longitudinal slot in the extrusion capable of containing the cable therein. The slot-forming pair of sides each includes opposed portions comprising a plurality of adjacent V-shaped segments thereby forming opposed longitudinal teeth in the sidewalls of the slot capable of releasably gripping a cable disposed in the slot.
