Stateless cord management device

A stateless cord management device for storage and deployment of a cord having a connector attached to at least one end thereof, said device comprising:

• a body comprising a sidewall having a first open end and a second open end, said first open end and said second open end being oppositely disposed from one another,
• a channel at least partially defined by said sidewall and disposed therethrough between said first open end and said second open end,
• an access opening extending longitudinally along and through said sidewall between said first open end and said second open end,
• said access opening is at least partially defined by cooperatively disposed and abutting free ends of the sidewall, said free ends being at least partially separable from one another permitting access into said channel, and
• a retention member having a length and a width attached to a portion of said sidewall, wherein said retention member extends into said channel along said width thereby at least partially defining a retention member recess for receipt and retention of at least a portion of the cord therein.

A stateless cord management device for storage and deployment of a cord having a connector attached to at least one end thereof, said device comprising:

• a body comprising a sidewall having a pair of oppositely disposed open ends,
• said sidewall comprising a substantially cylindrical configuration,
• a channel at least partially defined by said sidewall and disposed therethrough between said pair of oppositely disposed open ends,
• a plurality of retention members each having a length and a width, wherein each of said plurality of retention members extends into said channel from oppositely disposed portions of said sidewall towards one another, and
• said plurality of retention members and said sidewall at least partially defining a retention member recess.
