  • Publication number: 20090101763
    Abstract: A cable hanger hangs cables in a linear vertical position. The cable hanger includes a bent resilient rod with two elongated sections (legs) and a base section that form a U-shape design for holding cables. The bent resilient rod has a curved section and a downturn section extending from one of the two elongated sections (the first leg). The downturn section has a hook end. When the two elongated sections are pressed toward each other, the hook end can connect with the other elongated section (the second leg), thereby positively retaining (or locking) the cables in the U-shape design.
