Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

An ascension cable was a type of grappling hook that was used during the Clone Wars. The DC-15S and DC-15A blaster rifles, which saw widespread usage by the Grand Army of the Republic's clone troopers, were equipped with ascension cables. A grappling extension provided ascension cable functionality to a DC-17 hand blaster; Clone Captain Rex and ARC trooper Fives used the extension during the Battle of Ringo Vinda.
