ABSTRACT:
The invention contemplates a suspension bracket and clamp bent and therefore integrally formed from a single strip of metal, the clamp being completed by a nut-and-bolt fastener to compress integrally connected clamp jaws upon a desired local point of attachment to an overhead suspension cable, such as a messenger wire for support of CATV cabling or the like. The configuration is such that for initial placement upon the suspension cable, the jaws are downwardly open to permit effectively hooking the bracket to hang from the cable; the hanging involves bolt-shank contact with the top of the cable section and lateral retention by and between confronting inner surfaces of the jaws. One of the jaws has an inwardly bent formation at such downward offset from the bolt shank as to establish a trapped or nested relation of the cable section when the fastener is tightened to compress the jaws upon the cable section.
