All fibers in the cable are color-coded according to the coding standard. The tube contains up to 24 optical fibers and is filled with hydrophobic gel to protect the fibers from moisture and vibrations. The cable core is protected against water penetration using swelling fibers. The cable is reinforced with aramid fibers. To provide additional structural strength, two ARP rods are embedded in the outer HDPE layer. Two threads embedded in the jacket facilitate the removal of the cable's outer sheath (ripcords). The cables are designed for installation in primary and secondary telecommunication ducts using pneumatic (blowing) and mechanical (pulling) methods, as well as for aerial installations on spans up to 80m.

The OPTIX Aramid Z-XOTKtcdD cable features a lightweight single-tube construction (~20kg/km), high flexibility, and resistance to pulling despite its small diameter (~5.0mm). It incorporates gel and water-blocking (WB) design, HDPE sheath, UV resistance, and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 70°C. Reinforced with 2 ARP rods (0.4mm) and aramid fibers, it is completely dielectric. The maximum installation tension is 1200N.
