A merchandise display stand (10) for displaying an item of merchandise (30) defines an angled exit path (44) for a security cable attached to the merchandise. The display stand includes a base (12) configured for attachment to a support surface (11) and an upright (14) extending from the base (12). The security cable (24) extends from the base (12) through an internal passageway (25) defined by the upright (14) to the merchandise. The upright (14) has an arcuate or an angled shape relative to the support surface (11) and the angled exit path (44) forms an acute angle with a central axis between about fifteen and about seventy-five degrees. A sensor housing (20) may be disposed between an upper end of the security cable (24) and the merchandise and configured for attachment to the merchandise. A first displacement sensor (19) may be provided for indicating whether the base (12) is separated from the support surface (11) and a second displacement sensor may be provided for indicating whether the merchandise is separated from the sensor housing (20). Electronic circuitry may also be provided for monitoring and detecting an unsecured state of the first and second displacement sensors and for activating an alarm when the first or second displacement sensor is in the unsecured state.
