Hi Brandon,
I'm not sure anyone can help you answer this without knowing the author's name or reading the text. In order to get an accurate answer for you, knowing the context would be important. Without knowing the context, I would just say cables are like cords and look like vines. However, if the question asked about symbolism or something else, I'm not sure.
Sincerely,
Alissa
