Claim 18:
19. A method of installing a cable support to a support structure, the method comprising:
securing a support body to the support structure via a mounting tab, the support body including a saddle configured to support one or more cables and a stem extending from a first end of the saddle in a first direction, the mounting tab extending from the stem in a second direction, and including one or more holes configured to receive a fastener to secure the support body to the support structure and a secondary tab; and
applying a force to the support body to selectively bend the mounting tab relative to the support body from any one of (i) a wall-mount configuration, in which the mounting tab extends substantially parallel to the first direction and away from the stem, and the secondary tab extends substantially parallel to the first direction and toward the stem, and (ii) a ceiling-mount configuration, in which the mounting tab is rotated away from the wall-mount configuration in a first rotational direction to extend over the saddle, and so that the secondary tab extends away from the saddle, to a rod-mount configuration, in which the mounting tab is rotated away from the wall-mount configuration in a second rotational direction to extend away from the saddle, and so that the secondary tab extends toward the saddle.
