Extralink SM Aerial Cable is an overhead fiber optic cable. It is constructed with 72 G.652D fibers placed in 6 loose tubes twisted around a central FRP rod, which is a reinforcing element. Cable is covered with HDPE sheath.
Self-supporting optical fiber is characterized by resistance to severe weather conditions and temperature differences. Its construction is reinforced by fiber reinforced plastic (FRP). Outer sheath made of polyethylene is resistant to solar radiation.
