CABLE SUPPORT

A cable support comprises an elongate supporting structure configured for attachment to a vertical surface. The cable support comprises a boom arm for supporting a cable wherein the boom arm is arranged to slide along at least a portion of the elongate supporting structure. The cable support further comprises a slidable pivot for supporting the boom arm. When deployed, the boom arm slides down along at least a portion of the elongate supporting structure as the boom arm rotates outwards from the supporting structure to provide lateral support for the cable. The slidable pivot supports the boom arm by sliding downwards along the length of the supporting structure during deployment of the boom arm.
