A docking station for a portable electronic device comprises a base, an upper surface 5, a lower surface, and an aperture (20, Fig. 9) communicating between upper and lower surfaces. The lower surface has one or more channels communicating with the aperture, where the channels engage and receive a connector cable 10 for the device. An annular pedestal 2 has a lower end engagable with the aperture, and an upper end including a support 8 for a device-engaging end of the cable 9, arranged so a cable received in the channel may extend through the aperture and pedestal with the terminal extending upwardly from the pedestal. A support 3 extends upwardly from the base, and is moveable between locations in adjustable spaced relation rearwardly of the pedestal; and is secured using a clamp (15, Fig. 2). The pedestal may receive differently shaped/sized cable terminals, and may comprise a support member with a foot to engage the upper surface and tongues to extend through slots in the base to allow the support to slide forwards and rearwards relative to the pedestal. |
