Part name question

Forgive my ignorance...

Learn me some knowledge about the little gizmo that sort of replaced the yoke on cantilever brakes. You know, the piece where the brake cable enters the top and goes to out to one lever while a separate short cable goes to the other lever. What's that little gizmo called? I want one, and don't even know what to search for.

Thanks.

It's a straddle cable but specifically a "z link".
