RNO was using Runway 16L. Neither Pilot had used this runway during previous flights. It was noticed that there are arresting cables depicted on Runway 16L on the Jeppesen diagram (page 10-9). Pilot Monitoring called RNO Tower directly during the arrival to ask about the cables and give time for the crew to make a plan. RNO Tower stated that there are not any cables installed on Runway 16L. Arrival was continued without issue.While taxiing to the gate; the Controller told the crew that Airfield Operations was asked about the cables and responded that cables had not been installed in a long time. The incorrect depiction on the Airfield Diagram created an additional distraction to the crew during the arrival.
Air Carrier First Officer reported a Jeppsen 10-9 chart error.
