The invention is concerned with a device for holding a cable suspended from a support, the cable having an aerial support wire connected therealong for supporting same with an end portion thereof securely held by the device. The device of the invention comprises an open-ended tubular member having an inlet end and an outlet end for receiving the cable and support wire therethrough with the end portion of the support wire extending beyond the outlet end and separated from the cable, wire retention means integral with the tubular member for securing the wire end portion to the tubular member and means for connecting the tubular member to the support such that the tubular member lies at a predetermined distance from the support. This device enables an aerial support wire, such as the steel messenger wire of a messenger coaxial cable used in the cable TV industry, to be securely held at the dead-end thereof while preventing the cable from undergoing further separation from the messenger wire when separating forces are exerted thereon.
