Abstract
A cable dispenser which aids in transporting, storing, and deploying coiled or spooled wire is disclosed. The cable dispenser includes a base with a rotating circular top plate which has adjustable guide posts that laterally stabilize a spool of wire. The cable dispenser further includes a center post with a top-mounted handle for carrying or suspending the dispenser from a hook-like appendage. The guide posts may be removed to allow use with spooled wire by placing the spooled wire on the center rod. The base includes a bearing which enables rotation of the top plate and the wire.
