A device to provide support to a support strand when a small cell is mounted thereto to limit amount of droop that occurs on the support strand when the small cell is mounted thereto. The strand support device is mounted to a telephone pole (via a suspension clamp that is mounted to the pole to secure the support strand thereto) and includes a mounting rod and a support rod that extend outward from the pole. The distance the device extends from the pole is based on the distance from the pole that the small cell is located. The device connects to the support strand in proximity to where the small cell is mounted. Connecting to the support strand rather than the small cell ensures that no damage is done to the small cell. The device may be adjustable so that it can be utilized in different situations.
