    Abstract: A cable hanger includes: a generally flat base with at least one opening; first and second arms extending in a first direction from opposite edges of the base; first and second locking members extending in the first direction from, respectively, ends of the first and second arms, each of the locking members comprising a respective hook; first and second gripping members, each of the first and second gripping members extending from the base or one of the arms and forming a pocket configured to receive and grasp a cable; and first and second stabilizing features, each mounted to and extending from a respective one of the first and second locking members. The first and second locking members are forced toward each other to mount the cable hanger in a mounting location vis the hooks, such movement causing the first and second gripping members to grasp a cable in the pocket. The first and second stabilizing features are configured so that engagement of the first and second stabilizing members inhibits relative movement of the first and second locking members.
