A system for securing an item is disclosed. The system may include a length of flexible cable, a connector, and a lock. The connector may selectively connect a first portion of the cable and a second portion of the cable to form a loop in the cable. The connector may comprise a base comprising a first aperture containing the first portion of the cable and a corner. The connector may further comprise a blocker. The blocker may occupy a blocking position wherein the blocker cooperates with the base to maintain the second portion bent around the corner. The lock may selectively secure the blocker with respect to the base and maintain the blocker in the blocking position.

1. A securement device configured for securing an item with a lock, the securement device comprising: a flexible cable having a first portion and a second portion;a connector base having a first end opposite a second end, a stepped area being formed on the first end, the stepped area having a back wall, a through hole being formed through the back wall with a transition portion between the back wall and the through hole, a lock extension extending from the second end;a blocking sleeve surrounding at least a portion of the connector base, the blocking sleeve configured to move relative to the connector base from a blocking position to a non-blocking position;wherein the connector base selectively connects the first portion and the second portion to form a loop in the flexible cable with the second portion of the flexible cable being inserted through the through hole and extending into the stepped area;and wherein in the blocking position the blocking sleeve holds the second portion of the flexible cable in a bent configuration within the stepped area, where the second portion is bent about the transition portion to prevent withdrawal of the second portion from the through hole, the lock configured to be attached to the lock extension to prevent the transition of the blocking sleeve from the blocking position to the non-blocking position. 2. The securement device of claim 1, wherein the connector base comprises a first aperture. 3. The securement device of claim 2, wherein at least some of the first portion of the flexible cable is contained with the first aperture, the first portion having an enlarged section that engages the first aperture to block withdrawal of the first portion from the first aperture. 4. The securement device of claim 1, wherein the blocking sleeve holds the second portion of the flexible cable in a single bend about the transition portion. 5. The securement device of claim 1, wherein the connector base and the blocking sleeve are both cylindrical. 6. The securement device of claim 1, wherein the blocking sleeve comprises a locking aperture, the lock extension extending through the blocking sleeve at least when the blocking sleeve is in the blocking position. 7. The securement device of claim 6, wherein the lock extension comprises a shackle aperture. 8. The securement device of claim 7, wherein the lock comprises a shackle extending through the shackle aperture. 9. The securement device of claim 6, wherein the lock extension comprises a locking groove extending circumferentially thereabout. 10. The securement device of claim 9, wherein the lock engages the locking groove. 11. The securement device of claim 6, wherein the blocking sleeve is covering at least a part of the stepped area in the blocking position. 12. The securement device of claim 11, wherein the blocking sleeve further comprises a first clearance aperture and a second clearance aperture, the first portion of the flexible cable being inserted through the first clearance aperture to permit movement of the blocking sleeve relative to the connector base, the second portion of the flexible cable being inserted through the second clearance aperture to permit movement of the blocking sleeve relative to the connector base. 13. The securement device of claim 1, wherein the transition portion between the back wall and the through hole is a corner. 14. A securement device configured for securing an item with a lock, the securement device comprising: a flexible cable having a first portion and a second portion;a cylindrical connector base selectively connecting the first portion and the second portion to form a loop in the flexible cable, a cutout being formed in the connector base and being defined by a back wall and a bottom wall, a through hole being formed through the back wall with a transition portion between the back wall and the through hole, a lock extension extending from the connector base;a blocking sleeve with a cylindrical interior wall surrounding at least a portion of the connector base, the blocking sleeve configured to axially move relative to the connector base from a blocking position to a non-blocking position;wherein the second portion of the flexible cable is inserted through the through hole and is extending into the cutout;and wherein in the blocking position the blocking sleeve holds the second portion of the flexible cable in a bent configuration within the cutout, where the second portion is bent about the transition portion to prevent withdrawal of the second portion from the through hole, the lock configured to be attached to the lock extension to prevent the transition of the blocking sleeve from the blocking position to the non-blocking position.
