OPTIX STRONG ZKS-XOTKtsFf cable (Steel tape): an outdoor opto-telecommunication cable meant for installation in sewage canalisation as well as direct burial into the ground, a solid multi-tube construction with a dry sealed core, great durability against dragging, a central strengthening element (FRP rod), loose tube, gel and a water blocking construction (WB), armoured by a corrugated steel strip, HDPE shell -UV radation resistant, temperature range between -30°C and +70°C - an equivalent to the ZKS-XOTKtsFf. Maximum installation tension: 2000N-3000N.

All fibres and tubes of the cable adhere to the "EIA/TIA-598" colour coding standard. Each tube containing up to 12 fibres is filed with a hydrophobic gel to protect against moisture and vibrations. The cable core is safeguarded against water penetration by moisture absorbing yarns (WSY) and/or an anti-humidity tape' The cables tubes and filler elements are twisted along a central strengthening element - the FRP rod. Two threads molten into the cable shell (ripcords) ease the removal of the cables outer layer. The cables are meant for installation in sewage canalisation by pneumatic (cable blowing) and mechanical (cable pulling) means, as well as for direct burial into the ground, their construction provides protection of the glass fibres rodents and mechanical damage.
