Abstract

An apparatus comprising a clamp. The clamp can include a plate. The plate can include a mounting opening to accommodate a shaft of a bolt module there-through and to stop an end of the bolt module from passing through, and cable tie openings. The clamp can also include a tube projecting from the plate, where an opening in the tube is coaxial with the mounting opening. The clamp can also include a non-metal curled coupling member sized to wrap around a portion of a cable and a non-metal coupling spacer member having a base portion and spacing arms projecting from the base portion. Ends of the spacing arms can be configured to contact the curled coupling member and the base portion has an opening coaxial with the mounting opening and the opening in the tube. A clamp and cable assembly and methods of manufacturing the clamp and assembling the clamp and the cable are also disclosed.
