Grappling cable

A grappling cable is a device used to grapple objects.

The USS Defiant (NX-74205) (I) was equipped with at least one grappling cable. In 2375, Odo used a grappling cable and propelled himself a short distance grasping it to retrieve a Lurian cargo pod with Cardassian children aboard. (SS DS9 (Foundlings))
