Download Free 3D Model Macbook Pro Connector Hub 3D Print Model
Summary
After reviewing the available parts on Thingiverse (of which there are many!) for laptop connector hubs, I decided to create a custom part for my own cables. The hardware this part is designed for is the Macbook Pro 15 inch retina (mid 2014). Ports included are: power supply, both Thunderbolt ports, USB, and headphone jack. I used a micrometer to measure the size of my current apple power supply terminal, and designed all cable terminal-hub interfaces to have a -0.2 mm fit (hub is smaller than cable terminal housing). USB and Thunderbolt terminal housings vary quite a bit in all dimensions, so there is a chance this may not fit your specific connectors.
Part is available at: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/a196b600e6f6e8c0ad7bfc9e/w/2082e1db4c7cc63f5996dca5/e/627410629d75fce8e1e79e2c
To change width and height of each connector’s housing interface, modify the bottom dimensions of sketch 1. Extrude 1-4 determine the housing depth. Enjoy!

Resin used for this print was the Formlabs Tough v2. Parts printed with this resin tend to be a bit more flexible than I like, if your cable terminals aren’t snug enough I would recommend shrinking the hub interfaces with Autodesk Meshmixer or like .STL editing program.
