Abstract: A post-cable connection for releasably connecting a cable to a post, for example in a roadway cable barrier system. A hairpin shaped post-cable connector is hung from the top end of a post whereby when the post is impacted and urged toward ground level the cable is released from the post. The hairpin shaped post-cable connector has an elongated section forming a loop disposing a cable and a top section extending between the elongated section and a hook end section.

Abstract: Post-cable connectors and cooperative C-section posts are utilized to releasably connect a cable in a cable barrier system to arrest errant motor vehicles that leave a roadway. A post-cable connector has an elongated section having a loop and a top section extending from the elongated section and terminating at a hook end for connecting the cable to the cooperative C-section post for example by hanging the top section of the post-cable connector from a back wall of the C-section post such that the elongated section is positioned in a cavity defined by the C-section post so that the loop is disposed through a slot in a face wall opposite from the back wall and positioned exterior of the cavity.
