The cable contains a central optical module with loosely laid fibers. The free space in the optical module is filled with a hydrophobic filler. Fiber optics module is covered with water blocking tape and steel tape. Steel rope is used as the messenger. The fiber optics module and the messenger member are covered with a jacket from middle density polyethylene.
The maximum possible count of optical fibers in the cable is 24.
