  In this paper we will show how to classify Legendrian and transverse knots in
the knot type of "sufficiently positive" cables of a knot in terms of the
classification of the underlying knot. We will also completely explain the
phenomena of "Legendrian large" cables. These are Legendrian representatives of
cables that have Thurston-Bennequin invariant larger that the framing coming
from the cabling torus. Such examples have only recently, and unexpectedly,
been found. We will also give criteria that determines the classification of
Legendrian and transverse knots the the knot type of negative cables.
