Cable railing connections are the hardware that holds the cables in place on a cable railing system. There are a variety of different cable railing connections available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

Some of the most common cable railing connections include:

• Swaged connections: Swaged connections are made by compressing the end of the cable with a special tool. This creates a strong and secure connection that is difficult to remove. Swaged connections are the most common type of cable railing connection.
• Eyebolt connections: Eyebolt connections use an eyebolt to secure the cable to the post. Eyebolt connections are easy to install and can be used with a variety of different cable types. However, eyebolt connections are not as strong as swaged connections.
• Turnbuckle connections: Turnbuckle connections use a turnbuckle to adjust the tension in the cable. Turnbuckle connections are the most adjustable type of cable railing connection. However, they can be more difficult to install than other types of connections.
