Why is it masculine?
Cable is masculine in Spanish. It derives from Latin "capulum" (a halter or rope), a neuter noun of the second declension. During the evolution of Romance languages, most Latin neuter nouns were reanalyzed as masculine, and words ending in "-um" typically developed into masculine forms ending in "-o" or "-e" in Spanish. "Cable" follows this pattern of Latin neuter nouns becoming masculine in Spanish.
