Spreader.
Or spreader bar sometimes.
It is a spreader bar for a crane or overhead of some sort to pick up something that is wide.
The cranes around here have a set of them of a number of sizes -
Check Rigging.com :
Notice the pictures on the bottom of the page.
That bar is set for a specific width. You want a down drop of cables not a diagonal.
Sometimes they use three. Two under a wide one giving 4 pickups over a longer area than the two on the top one.

I've heard them called a "strong back" in other industries.
