Hi,

You fix the cable inside the pole by applying three cable ties as a
triangle in regular intervalls. The loose ends of the cable ties will
center the cable inside the pole. That is how we do it in sailing. You do
not want a cable flapping against the inside of the mast, which is the
pole.
That does not solve the prolem of the cable weight, you need a pull relief
anyway.
